Forum Content Search

[Maelstrom]

Apologies if this has already been answered in another thread.

 

Why is searching for personal content limited to only 1 year ago?

 

For example, searching for my own posts yields only 65 items (as of today), when this is actually my 134th. Unless I'm mistaken, this restriction wasn't in place until very recently. Because I have used that search function to go back and check my previous content on multiple occasions.

 

 

I know, first world problems... but it's still frustrating.

Forum Search might be restricted to reduce database queries that can create a heavy serverload, especially forum searches. That might be one reason.

 

The other reason, that I think is most likely, is that the forums is still in default configuration, what would explain the super annoying things like you block people but you still read their stuff in status messages ect.

I think it was one year ago where the Forum changed to a new server & domain, this could be a reason too

Thanks for the suggestions. I think search might be restricted to reduce database queries, as per the default configuration of the new server & domain. Haha. So, you're both right
