Search option inside a Post....

[leumaseoj]

Hi guys,

If altenbach, ben, Dennis, tbob, Smercurio_fc, Ravens Fan, Ray R... like this guys started some thread means.... that threads are going upto 20 to 40 pages. at that time it is very tough to find where a particular last post is.. So inside the post if the forum having any search engine with 2 options like...

1. Search (or sort) a post by date.

2. Search by person(Name). That will be easy for filter particular persons post and get benefit...

<<Kudos are welcome>>

You can actually determine this from the page that displays the threads. I.e., the Message Listings page. The "New" column indicates the new posts, and each of those numbers is a link. Click on the number to be taken to the last unread messages. When you have a thread with lots of replies you'll get a page number added to the thread title like this [ 1 2 3 4 ... ]. The last one will be the character ">>". Clicking on that will take you to the last page of the thread.

You currently cannot search within a thread, though I agree this would be useful. I've seen this capability on lots of other forum software, so I have no idea why this is missing in Lithium's software. As for the sort, you can sort a thread by date by clicking on the Topic Options menu:

I am assuming that you are referring to searching for the replies by a certain user with a specific thread?

I am resurrecting this as I think searching inside a thread would be a useful feature.

Hello guys,

Finally smercurio_fc accepted it.... 🙂

Once i found a useful point in a post. When I try to find after a week, I couldn't. because the post size became more than 500 replys... I try to move forward page by page.... But finally I failed  to find. So I thought of this point....

Anyway Thanks!!!!

I went back and verified that this idea has been reported to our forum vendor and that I voted for it Perhaps it will show up in the future?
