Maybe it's just because I woke up at 5:45am with a headache and there's something I'm not seeing, but I am searching for something in a specific post and, when all the threads containing those words or something like it come up, there's no way to easily find the post in question. If I click on the forum, it takes me to the forum. If I click on the thread, it takes me to post 1. If I click author name, it takes me to their profile.

Is there any way to use the Search feature to find an isolated post in a thread with over 100 replies?? I can't remember if I've ever done it before, but I sure can't do it at the moment.

When you search, you can display results as posts or threads. I think that you want to select the post option.

If you remember who the post was by, you can find the member in the memberlist and click "find all posts by this member" or some such verbiage.

Duh...that's what I must have done before. Didn't see it this time. Thanks!
