Maybe a link to find our own posts?
« on: 06 October 2008, 15:56:17 »
forgive me if this has been discussed before but I think it could be a good idea to have a link or button on the home page to take us straight to post that we created.

I just find it a little long winded sometimes when I want to update a post i created months ago by either searching for what i think i called it or scanning though page after page of threads.

You can find the last 25 (max the search allows for other reasons) from your control panel ::)

You've probably noticed we have implemented some extreme limitations on searches - that is by design, and due to a fundamental issue with the architecture of the forum.

Use google ... go to advanced search .. put your user name and a couple of words from the subject in the top line ... then in the bottom line .. where it says domain .. put www.omegaowners.com  :)

I choose 100 subject / page as well .. but thats personal
