Searching old posts on the forum ???

Post by Michael Dene »

When searching the forum for posts by specific users I can't get past the 1st 200 results. This is very frustrating when you think of the wealth of information tucked away in there.

Is there any way of getting more than 200 results in a single search OR do a 2nd search without repeating the original results ?!? Image

Thanks he said hopefully.

The answer is NO.

The technical reason is:

Michael,

It *is* frustrating, but make sure that you perform an identical search in the "BarChatter Archives" section. There are thousands of threads in there... I've found some great stuff in the BarChatter.

There is a Wealth of Steel Guitar information on "Bar Chatter". Priceless!

That was a catchall section before it was more organized as it is now.......al Image Image
