Title: Search limits beyond 25 posts. Post by wally1 on Oct 1st, 2014 at 8:22pm
Im trying to go over some previous posts but it seems i cant go back more than 25 posts?
Is there anyway around it where i can search for posts beyond 25 posts? |

Type this in Google with some words you remember from the post:
site:ozpolitic.com/forum Or use http://www.google.com/advanced_search and fill in the fields. Is that what you want to know? |

It might work. (Never does for me.) But why is the limit here set at 25? |

Possibly due to the space it would take up to archive and index the entire site's history and the relatively infrequent requests to access much further back than 25 or so posts. And, of course, the cost of doing so. You can bet the host wouldn't do it for nothing. Only a guess... |

Yet at other Forums, I (mere member) can hit a button and find thousands of posts made over very many years? |

This is the function i want. To go for example over a members posts going to every post they made. Searching will be difficult. If i typed in the search button for "cars", i may get 100 pages which arent relevant |
