Ermmm...just went to check up on a posting from before Xmas- and can't get access to anything before 11/2/09 ...even though it says there are 500 posts, I can't access beyond p20.

Any reason for limiting it to 500 posts????

No idea.

What are you searching for and I'll see if I can replicate the problem and see if it is the site.

[lynda66]

mine does it too, is that the date the site went to the new server? maybe they didn't transfer old stuff? oh my date is the 20th, and only 500 ... though most of em are probably no great loss lol

If you go to the bottom of the page...is your display options set to 'last month'?

I was just thinking that I'm sure Rhona did do a sweepstake of several babies ETA etc before Bean was born.
The Vine has - if I recall- been limited to the past 500 posts per person for quite a while now- and those of us who go over have the earlier ones deleted.
Don't think this was the case when I first joined- but it means unless I can recall the exact title of the thread- or hunt for months using the search facility-previous snippets of useful advice have 'gone'
Probably something to do with using up memory space or something.
Pity really.
As I've posted 500 posts in the last month I can't see what I wrote before Xmas- so can't check up on things easily .

Urmm...where do I look???

[zazen999]

It needs to be changed from 'last month' to 'beginning'

[lynda66]

user cp ... edit options ...default thread age options ... but it doesn't work

oh ... i dunno where beginning is lol

[zazen999]

go to 'search' and search for something.

At the bottom of that page will be the options - and the default is 'one month'. Change to 'beginning'.

if you've got 500 that come up it will show the last 500 so you need to be more specific.

I put 'sweepstake rhona' in and this thread and the above thread showed.

Already set to default

I'm sure it was set at 500 max a couple of years ago- if not longer. It just doesn't seem very many for peeps like me who post a lot.
I recall a while ago trying to find some info either Geordie or Jaxom posted, but couldn't find the thread..bit frustrating- although I new I'd asked something about it and hoped I'd find it in my 'previous posts'

[lynda66]

i still can't find beginning

[Nicos]

Thanks for that zazen!

But still....you know what I mean about being limited to 500 personal posts???-
