Archive help
Some few months before we switched to the new forum format a Florida couple was considering a LD purchase. They were wondering if they could look at one.   I mentioned that I would be in FL this summer. 
Fast forward to the last couple weeks. I can not find the post that I offered help or the thread. 
This post is more a hope that if the family is still looking they see the thread and contact me.  I start the untimed rambling part of the trip next week.

That was it.  Thanks.  When I was looking folks were very kind to my wife and I.  I would like to repay the kindness and maybe help another potential owner.  I will be sending a PM if they made the transition to the new forum.

John,

You can look back at your own old posts via your profile - just click your account then look near your avatar for "Show Posts - Show Drafts"

Another option is Community -> Search -> put in your search words and the author of the post (in this case, you).  Expand the "boards" section and chose which boards to search if you want to limit them, for this example, Yahoo Archive.  You can even search specific date ranges, say 60-180 months ago, sort the output by relevance (default) or most recent first or several other options.

FYI - the system automatically saves posts in progress as drafts so you almost never lose your work - you can use the above method to "show drafts" and find your work in progress and continue.

Thanks. I thought I did that but the path I followed took me to recent posts.  Thanks for breaking the code.  I will be posting another iPhone related issue in the next day or so.  I am having an issue posting more than one picture.  I think this is an iPhone issue (iPhone 5 maybe). For now I am off to celebrate my wife's birthday.  Take care and thanks for all the help.

This alone makes the move to the new site worthwhile, having so many nearly completed postings disappeared, while on Yahoo.
