Searches by User Name Not Returning Results

[Rezdave]

I'm not getting results any more from searches that include my user name as a search criteria.

As I've been on these boards for many years I've written about many topics. Frequently I will refer new posters to older threads that have already covered the issue they seek, or specific posts of mine rather than retyping everything (or if the matter goes a little off-topic).

It was simple to type my name and a few key words for the search, but now that no longer works.

This problem is pretty recent.

Thanks,

Rez

If you go to your Recent Posts section in your profile, you can get recently replied to stuff. Doesn't work so well for really old stuff though..:(

Hmm. I know Gary made some changes to search, but I don't think that was supposed to be one of 'em.... we'll look into it.

I had to disable returning messageboard posts from search results recently since they had become a performance problem. I hope to return them soon.

I know. Sometimes when the boards "eat" a post I can find it there and resurrect it. Other times it ends up in the wrong thread so I track it down and delete it after re-posting correctly.

Thx,
