The Search on the site works well enough but once I've chosen a thread, how can I search within a thread to find the relevant post ?
This would be very useful if the thread extends over many pages.

Just a thought

I wonder if helps to go to advanced search: http://www.stereo.ne...&query=&x=8&y=9

and use the post limit button?

Once you are in the thread, on the top right hand side there is a small menu and you will see "Search Thread".

Thanks Marc
Don't know how I missed that - I'll blame it on my glasses

Cheers

marc a sticky or a structured tutorial on a few of these things would help us and both take pressure off u and exhibit the great work u have done

[Marc]

Great idea in theory I don't have the time right now to create such tutorials however.
It doesn't need to be a mod / admin that creates a tutorial either?

Using the new stereonet website, how do I use the 'Search / This topic' box to search for posts by a particular member in the topic?

Good question Arg. I've just tried a couple of things and didn't find an answer.
It's not a type of search that would be very common I imagine.

The only thing I can suggest unless someone else has a solution that I haven't discovered yet, is using the "Find" in your browser, and typing the username in there.
That will jump to their name within the page of the thread you are reading.

A workaround I guess for now, but not very helpful in multiple page threads.

Thanks Marc. I used it quite a bit on the old site, on longer threads.
