searching this forum ???

[okiegirl1]

now, ya'll be nice with your response, but am I just using the search wrong?

example, I'm looking for prior threads on what ya'll are doing right now to plan for spring.

but when I put something into the seach, it comes up with a gazillion different threads. Each thread I'm sure says something, but it could be on page 2 or page 122. and even if I do find it, it could be someone saying how they need to start planning for the spring.

is that about as clear as mud?

how do I do a seach and fine posts within threads relating to my intent topic?

I had the same problem yesterday. Anyone have a solution?

It is definitely more difficult here than it is at BYC now, but I think the only way to narrow it down is if you know who the poster was, and in what category it was in. I have difficulty sometimes with the search too.

Okie, one of your search options is to choose by Topics or Posts....I always have better luck if I choose the "posts" option when I want to narrow down the search.

It still gives you much through which to sort but the individual posts will have the topic for which you are searching instead of a whole thread that may have it on post #2087....
