Better organized forum needed?

Hi Burr, yeah having the thread list available on the side is especially nice for reading brand new messages. Just one click to go to every thread instead of having the thread list disappear on you all the time and having to navigate back to it over and over again.

Having that thread list always available along the side is the main reason why I use this particular forum.

It makes it behave something more like a desktop e-mail program like where you have your mail list and a reading pane both on the screen at the same time.


re: Searching - putting stuff in quotes helps, also one other main tip about searching is you can put a + in front of a word to require that word.

So for example say you do a search and put in this: Network Sweep

That will then do a search for posts that contain either Network OR Sweep.

If you want to only find posts that contain both of the words Network AND Sweep in them, then put in this: +Network +Sweep

That can really help a lot to find something when you can think of more than 1 word that should be in it and then use the + in front of each word.
