I tried doing a search that was for a subject over 60 days old. but can't figure out how to make the search go back further than the 2 most recent pages of threads. This gettin old stuff sucks!

Instead of simply typing into the search at the top of the page, click on "Advanced Search" right next to the regular search. That should get you posts from waaayyyyyy back

I tried the advanced search without putting in a date range -- maybe that was my problem. Thanks

I think the suggestion from Water Rat is your best option. If this is not what you are looking for, let me know and I can check with the vendor to see what other options are available.

I did a search for "bass flies" in the advanced search, left the date range blank, and came up with posts all the way back to 2009. On one of the older softwares you actually had to specify if you wanted to see archived posts. I don't think that is the case with the current forum software.

Don't forget the drop down for where to search. Beside the magnifying glass, it says "this forum" click on that and you will get a drop-down. Then click on "Forums".
