Search suggestion.

PLEASE

Can we have a search function to search my own posts or another members posts only.
This would help dramatically.

I am trying to search for a post I had done earlier and I cant find it.

THANKS

Why dont you look through your post history?

Click on the "show replies to your posts" link on the front page that is by your profile. Its pretty easy.

Cause I have no clue where the post is.
It was quite awhile ago and the network is slow here.

My suggestion would be much easier.

Just go to the advanced search, you can do that

Then what though.
I am not sure what forum it was in and don't know the name of the thread is there anythign else that I can do to narrow it down?

Could I just search for my name along with keywords?
That only works if someone quoted me on it right?

If I could search my posts.
I have been trying to look for it for the past 10 minutes between helping customers and posting here.

I don't get it. In the advanced search you can search by poster. Match all words (keywords) Search in thread topics only. What in the world do you want more
