How do you search for a user?

[magsnden]

Hi! I've been lurking for a while and recently started participating, so I thought I'd ask a question I've had for a while.

I can't seem to search for a particular users posts. I see a place to do this (when you click on a users name) but it always tells me there are no matches.


Am I doing something wrong?! Please help!

I don't think the search function is working. It never works for me when I try to find an old thread. Welcome to the boards!!!

I don't think that works either. Maybe if you have a question for a certain person, you could pm them.
Glad you are a poster now!

Congrats on becoming a poster. That has never worked for me either. I think it's a computer thing.

The username search funtion was disabled about a year ago.

sometimes it works if you change your "skin" color to California Gold.

This method does seem to work for searching for a user's past posts.
Click on UserCP in the upper left on the dark blue bar. Then click on edit options and scroll down to miscellaneous options and click on the drop down arrow in the forum skin box. Then click on California gold. Then try your search Don't know why you must have this format, but it works
