Maybe lost when TB fixed servers or something.... :-/

No lost posts.

Key seems to be to pick some good keywords in the subject only

just cut and pasted a Jan 08 title into the search and "no results" must be limited to a couple of months history?

Thanks Jamie, ill post for the guy asking in general help.

How do you search your own posts/topics? And how do you search a specific section? Or do Admins get better features?

Yeah this board has its limits but the pros far outweigh the cons. It would be a massive, risky and time eating job to go port it to something with a more expansive search like PHPBB3. A Google Search on this site should defo do the job.

Easy way to accomplish that without having to remember the code:

Use 'Search Own Posts' option to find yours, and highlight only the section you want to search to limit to one section.

I few convertors are available.  Trouble is with most phpbb derived ones is the number of security issues surrounding them.
