robertmiles,

can you give an example of a word or word combination. Principally I find posts relatively easy, but getting to them in long threads is a big problem because selecting the found message does not jump to the post unless on the first page.

Few tricks:

Word combinations in quotation marks narrows a search down

Changing the search line in the address bar at end to 1000 shows lots more posts on 1 page than the maximum of 50 (see forum profile). e.g.

http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/...amp;forum=0&rows=1000

Once you have a list, at least with Firefox I can do fast search while typing for anything like dates, names, any string.

Denote time / date and navigate to an estimated page in a long thread, by changing the address bar value to best guess post number... e.g. 1250 which with a profile setting of 50 would cause a jump to page 25

There are more tricks covered in a Start Here forum FAQ, to make it easier but not painless.

ciao
