Is there a way we can extend the Search of the board to look inside your PMs too. Currently there is a lot of stuff I know I have there but trying to find it is impossible. I have a workaround and that involves downloading all my PMs as HTML (or similar) and then running a search on my PC for the text within the downloaded folder. But having this function inbuilt would be great. Can't see it being hard to implement because the database for the PMs must be the same as the rest of the forum and you just need to make your Search engine 'look' at the PM list for the user running the search.
