Advanced Search

Is there anyway to search by wildcard in advanced search,or say I want to find all posts that I made in a specific forum ?

If not it would be nice feature or be able to sort in post list view(followed) by date or by forum.

If the answer to the first query is no then this can moved to features request

If you try later today you will find that, from advanced search, as long as you include at least one forum, and a username, you can search for posts (by that user in that forum).

Hmmm. I selected 2 forums, entered my username, and tried both old and recent searches, and I got a 502 every time.

Ok it appears that searching recent posts works but you timeout on older searches due to (probably) the large volume of post that you made.

Test it on a forum that you do not post in all that much and see if older posts will work or timeout

Maybe it should be done Google style, where the first page or two of results are returned while the search is still going on.
