I started a few threads a while back seeking various advice,  probably over a year ago,  and I would like to refer back to those threads.  But when I search on my username  MattG under Advanced Search  I only get recent posts coming up.    Is it possible to get my complete history of threads started?

Anybody?  for example,  i once asked what bolt size and thread coarseness i need to plug the EGR on the back of a 5.0 head.  Now I search on my username and that thread,  or any threads prior to the last couple weeks,  doesnt come up.  Thanks.  sorry to be a pain.  i'm sure its user error on my part.  i'm not proud of it.

Down toward the bottom of the page, left side, it *should* have a box you can tweak for how far back you want to search...might be dependent on browsers, though...

It's probably not user error.  The search function has been that way since the board was switched to the new server.  Usually it will show very recent threads with your keywords then go back to threads from 2007ish, skipping 08-09.

You can always go to your profile and find all your started threads and posts in a link underneath your name. Easiest way to do it.
