archive search is very poor   Reply to topic

has anyone had problems finding posts in the archives?? I have been looking for some old posts from a few years back but if I use search one way I get a list with the posters names ( but I can't remember what I used ) and if I search another way I get the quick view links and title but that is it so I have to open every one to see if it is mine or not. it would be great if there was a way that you could go through the archives and see a thumb nail for each post like there is in each section now. plus it would be great if there were dates listed in the list views on contris. on the user profiles so you can figure out what ones are the newest for the users that have like more then say 20 posts.

Hi ferretman,

we are aware that there are certain things that need upgrading and we are working through a list of upgrades and new features as we speak and the archive search is on of these.

However, should you need to look for your own contributions, you don't have to scour the archives for them, simply hover your mouse over your username (top right) and select "My Contributions" or alternatively, your contributions are also listed on your profile page.

Cheers ...
