when you search for a thread or topic, it only gives you 2 pages of answers, often very recent ones. Is there any way to change it so it gives you more than 2 pages of search results?

Advanced Search!


It still only gives 2 pages of results, though. for example, if you type in 'racing system' as keywords - should have loads of results for that........

it still only gives you 2 pages of results :doh

Ok.

Im working on an All Weather system, so i was looking for info here on all weather tracks

If you go to advanced search, and type in 'All Weather' as the keywords, the results will be 2 pages long (it will say: showing results 1-30 of 60) with 30 results on each page.

now, i tried different keywords, and unless there is less than 60 results, it always displays 2 pages of results, with 30 on each page

Pages 3 & 4 are on the back of your screen :)

:laugh :laugh

Seriously, though, is there a time/space limit on how long posts are left here?

You can search each area of the forum on it's own - might help narrow things down a bit...

You can also try Clicking on 'User CP' then in the left side menu find and click on 'Edit Options' then in the box headed 'Thread Display Options' the last setting in this box is 'Default Thread Age Cut Off' change the drop down box to 'Show all threads'

You can also change the number of posts per page from forum default to 50 per page :geek:
