Let people search the title of every thread they have created.


Recommended Posts

Just recently I've been trying to find a thread I created a while ago. I tried the Neowin search as well as searching via Google (Which usually works pretty well). This is the second thread I've been unable to find in the last 2 weeks.

What I would like is a search box under your profile which only searches the title of your threads.

Thanks.

if anyone wants to go on a thread hunt you can attempt to hunt down the following thread for me.

I made a thread about 6 months regarding dodgy tech support that when you contact most major companies like Linksys, Netgear and so on all they do is want to charge you $200 to clean up your computer.

Yeah, I got bitten by this issue also.

I was looking for a topic I made about a RAID issue. I couldn't find it on the forums because the cutoff was too early, and RAID isn't exactly an uncommon keyword on the forum :|

Search in IPB kinda sucks now days >.>

Also, I suspect Neowin has handicapped the search slightly to stop it from eating into general forum performance. Running searches on the DB does chew up a fair amount of process time.

It's not the most elegant way, but if you remember what the topic was about just do what I said a few posts up, use the search function in your browser, press f3, click next page, press f3, click next page, etc.. until you find your result.

Nope it's https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/254342-inverted/ this if i remember correctly it was something with the save/open file window at the time was lacking the sorting buttons and right click as i was on XP SP2 at the time.
