I got no response in the "Technical Support" forum , so I'll put it out here....
==========
Is there any way to do a search on author or otherwise somehow find threads you replied to if you can't remember them all?

I'm finding that some of the topics get buried quickly by new activity in "General Discussion", and then I have to go through 10 pages of folders looking for the topic where a guy may have replied to my reply.

If I can remember a key word in the subject line, that will sometimes enable a search, but I need a tool for when memory fails...

P.R.K.

Yea, I, m getting old, pencil and paper for the ones I really want to remember.
This board does move fast, I like that

The old board had a feature in the search that allowed you to search by member name. It was handy for doing what you asked.
Another nice thing about this feature is when buying something on the for sale boards you could do a search on the seller and get an idea who he is from his posts.
