Until recently I was able to enter my own username in the "Search by User Name" field on the search page and find all recent threads I posted in, and also if anything new has been posted in them since my last visit. This no longer works. None of the threads I have posted in for the last month at least come up for me.
Is this something thats fixable? It causes me more time in finding stuff that interested me and/or causes me to lose track of these threads.
Thanks

If you click your name, in this thread, or any other, and "find more posts by user", you'll find your posts. I just did it for you, and it works.

Yeah, I know. That's still a pain to sift through posts IMO, esp if you post multiple times in a given thread. I like the list of threads if you search for a username, not a list of every individual post.
At the end of the day, isnt it SUPPOSE to work if you search for a username? If so the forum is technically broken. Is it fixable? ;)

Under your user cp (top left corner of the page), there is a section for "New subscribed threads". By default, You automatically subscribe to every thread you post in - so you'll be able to see every thread you've posted in. All of the threads that have had replies since the last time you viewed them will show up automatically - if you want to see all threads, just click on "view all subscribed threads" at the bottome of the box. No need to search.

"New Subscribed Threads: (0)
There are no subscribed threads to display in this folder for this time period."
I turned on the auto-subscribe feature though. Thanks for pointin it out!

This doesnt seem to be working either. It's only showing 1 thread in the subscription area......and I know I posted in a couple after turning on the auto-subscribe feature, including this thread.
Do the forum admins ever check this? Thats the whole point I posted here.....hoping that somebody can actually try to fix it.

Seems to be working decent for me now(User CP method, not searches) :)
