Here's How to Search Forum Messages

[Cheryl Griffin]

Did you know that you can search previous ITRC Forum Posts?

From the tabs at the left side of the screen,
Select Search
Enter keywords such as swintall or max_pe or telnet, etc. You can even put a persons name here, such as Shayne Wagley
Check the box for Community Forums
Click the Search button

All messages which meet the criteria will display!

This is a great way to read up on a particular topic or check if your question may already have been answered.

Happy Foruming!

This is for our Forum Newbies :^)

Cheryl:

This is indeed useful. My question, however, is when will more than fifty (50) posts be returned? This would certainly be a nice enhancement given the growing number of posts contained in the forum.

Regards, Jim.

Jim,
I am sure this would be on Shayne's enhancement list. Not sure if it will be part of the update due Mid-October. I will email her this thread to make sure she sees the request, though.

Take Care,
Cheryl

Hi Jim, et al -

Thank you for your feedback! Are you using 'Results per Page' section (located at the bottom of the search page), which allows you to select the number of replies you would like to display on a single page? You can select 10, 25, 50, or 100 posts per page.

Regards,

Shayne, et al.

The limit of what is returned seems fixed at fifty. Choosing 100 returns 50. Choosing 10/page offers five units of 10-each (as expected). Am I missing something?

Regards, Jim.
