How to find an old thread?
Feb 9th, 2015 at 10:06am
 
I have no luck with these searches at all.

The one I'd like to find atm is one I started about the middle of 2013 and I think it was called "Advice to (or for?) Tony Abbott".

I'd just like to see if he followed ANY of the suggestions I made.

Can anybody help me find it? And if you can, how do you do it.

I haven't searched any topics here before so I thought I would give it a go and try to figure out how it works.  Is this it?

Yes that's it. Thanks very much, I've updated it.

Why couldn't I find it? What's the secret?

I just fine tuned the search to find a thread made by you with "Abbott" in the title over an indefinite timespan.  There were a few and this one was the last on the list.
