Default searching under username

For the last few weeks I've been unable to come up with new posts when I search under my user name. Is this an error is does it have to do with search preferences or something?

Hmm, interesting. On every user's 'Find More Post By This User' that I've checked, no posts show up in the results after early in the morning of January 18, 2005. So it's not just you, at least. I'd guess Brains has been adjusting the search configuration again, and stopped indexing-by-user on the 18th.

Too late now for the posts of the past few weeks, but what you might want to do to be able to find your future posts is change your subscription preferences to automatically subscribe but with no email notification, to all of threads you post in - that way, you can see them all in the subscriptions list in the User CP.

Yeah, same has been happening when I search on my username. it sucks because I can't track the threads and post I've created. It take to long to keep scrolling down and looking from page-to-page to find a thread or a post I have participated in. Lots of times I don't even remember what subject I have posted under. Will this change back to the way it was Brian? I sure miss it and it made being here much more pleasurable.
