How do I search for a thread i have posted to

mad-mum_3

Sorry to put this here but I have just received a freebie I applied for and I am dead chuffed and want to say so on the orignal thread. I am certain I noted my thanks on the thread and said I had applied but it woud be great to say I got something.
But I can't seem to find it using search. Can anyone help me

What was the freebie? I/we could try find it for you too.
If the search doesnt work on this thread, try freebies gone but not forgotten?
Hope you find it xx

Hi thnks it was a simple shower cream and whilst i have found a thread I am sure it is too recent and I have not posted to it. but if you can find it then great because as I said I would like to confirm i got it.

Actullay have just found it . it was cunningly disguised as cleansing wipes. Would still like to know how Icould have found it more easily than i did as I eventually started at page 100 and worked forward and found it at page 33

If you do a search, and then advanced search, you can enter your user name, and it will list every thread to which you've posted. Alternatively, if you click on your own name, you can then find posts by user.

Fantastic thankyou it worked, can now reduce time spent wading through trying to find what I have done. More time available for sending for freebies!

Im glad you got what you were looking for, take care, happy fellow freebying!!! xxxx

Trix

Or you can click on 'User CP' and it will have a list of all of the threads you have posted on :cool:

I do the same as Trix does and click "UserCP". Firstly this brings up any threads that have been posted on recently that you have also posted on. Then to look at older threads you can click on "List subscriptions".

clicking on user CPdoes not bring up any threads for me. It shows no subscribed threads so i must ahve missed doing something

Trix

If you click on user cp, there should be a list at the left. Click on 'list subscriptions' under the 'subscribed threads' heading.

If that doesn't work:
1. Go to user cp
2. Click on 'EDIT OPTIONS' from the list on the left.
3. Look for the 'messaging and notification' section
4. Go to 'default thread subscription mode' in the above section.
5. In the drop down box - if the choice is on 'do not subscribe' change it to another option. I just have mine on no email notification which means the threads I post on are listed in my user cp, but I don't get any emails telling me about it. You can also have instant, daily or weekly email notification which will let you know if someone has posted on a thread you have posted on.

Hope that helps - if not, the techie board may be more useful (coz i'm no techie, I just stumble around and discover stuff )

just trying it out.......

fantastic it worked thnaks Trix

I take same approach. I work on principle that if I can think it then a computer is capable of doing it ( in the main!)
