A little addition to the search feature


Clarity

Recommended Posts

When you're in a topic, the search bar changes to "This Topic" specified. If you search up someone's username, it should direct you to their post(s). If this isn't what you mean, then please... Clarify, Clarity. *YEEEAAAAAHHHHHH*

That would be a useful feature, currently searching "This Topic" would only return posts in which the user's name is written.

 

And I can confirm this, try searching "Mei". The above post won't show up.

Oh, hm, you're right... :huh: I thought I've used that method, before, though, and I thought I recalled it working... Perhaps I'm wrong.

 

I support this, then. Would be useful.

Couldn't you just use Ctrl+F?

 

I am afraid that this method would be a little impractical if said thread has over 10 pages :/

Maybe there could be a feature where you can choose how many posts are on each page, like on eBay? You can choose default, or you can choose 25, 50, 100, or show all.

oookay, time to get my serious hat!

 

1. Locate the topic, and find the search bar on the top, and then click enter (just fill it blank for now)

2. Fill the desired name on the Find author field, and tick As posts on Display Results, then click Search Now
