Hello Brothers Admin ModHatter @modcaspar I was looking for a back post of mine about a month ago, and observed the following - The furthest I can go backwards on my old posts is limited. It appears that 67 pages is the magic number. Anything beyond that appears to have vanished. I was looking up another members back posts just today (Brother shamwow to be specific) and there also the back record stalls at page 67. Can you tell me if my observation(s) above are correct ? If so, is there some way of accessing posts after page 67 ? Thanks baza

baza, I've found a way you can list your older posts: - Use the "Search" feature at the top of the page. - Under "who" to search, enter your own username Now this still seems to limit you to 67 pages of results. However, if that takes you back to -- say -- Dec 2016, then add one more thing to your search: - Use the date range to add "before 01/01/2017". Then you'll get a new 67 pages of results, that are all before that date. Using this method, you can work back through ALL your posts. However, if you are looking for a specific post ("I want to find my post where I recommended XYZ"), use the "keyword" section of the search box to look for that post directly, by keyword "XYZ" (and -- optionally -- still use the "user" and date range fields, too).

Update: I just checked on one thing. There is a system-wide setting "number of posts per page", this was set to 15.
I tried updating this to 30. Then when I looked at your recent posts, I found it now only had 34 pages.
So what it really seems is that any given search is only returning 1000 "hits": 34 * 30 ~= 67 * 15 ~= 1000.
So I returned "number of posts per page" to 15; you'll have to use the search feature as I proposed above to get to older posts.
