is there a way to search posts or threads by member, like all the way back not just a few years? For instance if I want to see what dumb ass comments C Bimmer made in 2007, can I do that? JK

seems like it only goes back a year, and my own posts and threads only list like four or five of the most recent ones.

anyone?

If you click a profile and click on "find my content" it should show all posts...

So was your first content posted "Posted 03 July 2004 - 12:49 PM"?

I didn't know the "find my content" thing though, I always selected the POSTS or THREADS button on the top of the profile.

Actually this list is a bit misleading.
It is correct, but that wasn't my first post.
When you click the thread above the last one on the list you will see that there are earlier posts.
The list seems to go by last post...

It also says: There have been 724 items by Iceman
allthough my post count indicates there must be much more.
I think it only counts the threads shown, not the real post count.
Plus, some posts don't count anymore in the post count.
Some were deleted, some are in the lounge and are now not counted anymore but have been.

I am pretty sure that the list is the best you can get.
It seems there is no way to find all posts made by a member from the very beginning in order how they have been made.

On the profile page you have the ability to chose posts or topics, above the status. But this only shows the recent ones and you can't search for older ones.
Seems a bit complicated and has been easier in older software versions.

don't forget that you can separate the member content between posts made and threads/topics started. Also, seems the filter is limited to posts "from May 15, 1997."


When going thru the pages of posts of a member, seems the chronology of posts is out of order, for example, Iceman lists 40 pages of posts made, but page 40 has posts made in 1/2010, while page 38 has posts made in 11/2006
