Hello everyone,
I've been lurking for the past several years and figured I should probably start sharing a few quick hacks to "give back". I did a quick search but couldn't find anything that did this....
What this does: Makes "Find all posts by (member name)" actually find ALL posts by that member and ignores the value you specify (via the AdminCP) for your maximum search results (maxresults). This maxresults limit is also ignored if someone specifies a username in your "advanced search" options.
It's good for boards that want to keep the maxresults limited for performance reasons, however still want to allow members to search for all their (or someone else's) past posts.
On to the hack: This one is real quick, only three lines are edited in one file.
In search.php:
1. Find:
Change to:
2. Find:
Change to:
3. Remove:
This has been tested on our medium-sized boards (350k posts, 3k users) running vB3 gold and everything seems to be in order.
