Finding posts addressed to me

[Patrick Johnson]

Ever wanted to find just the posts that are addressed to you? Here's the way I've found to do it:

- Advanced Search
- User Name = [leave blank]
- Keyword(s) = "QUOTE=Patrick Johnson" (in quotation marks)
- Search Entire Posts (not Titles Only)
- see individual Posts (not Threads)

Works great.

Interesting, thanks. I do the same thing but just type in TATE, then I get some other Tate stuff as well.

Did you learn this from DH? I always wondered how he routinely finds years old threads mentioning him and responds like the thread was made yesterday.

Seems like there should be a button...

Good idea - I don't know if you caught this while you were out, but Mike is working on the next version with an emphasis on mobile. We should be seeing updated software at some stage.

I tried this tip and thought it strange that it was taking so long to respond to my query.

Works fast for me... maybe the forum feed was slow at the time.
