I know this is a dumb question.....but why do posts only to back to approx 08/10. This seems like it would limiti searches abck to only 1 month.

Where is the historic posts?

 

From time to time, we will purge old posts from our server to help speed up the forum performance of CL.

To answer your question and depending on exactly what you are searching for, under "SEARCH OPTIONS" in the "ADVANCED SEARCH" feature, you can filter out posts by date ascending or descending.

 

We haven't deleted any posts (although at some point we will likely move those several years old to an online-searchable archive).

The issue is likely your forum settings.

Part one - general settings.

Go to your user Control Panel ("User CP" at the top menu of the forum page) then select 'Edit Options" on the menu to the left (or just click this link https://www.clublexus.com/forums/pro...do=editoptions)

Scroll down until you find

Default Thread Age Cut Off
You may specify a time period from which to display threads. Threads older than the age you specify will not be shown.
Use Forum Default Show threads from last day Show threads from last 2 days Show threads from last week Show threads from last 10 days Show threads from last 2 weeks Show threads from last month Show threads from last 45 days Show threads from last 2 months Show threads from last 75 days Show threads from last 100 days Show threads from last year Show all threads Default Thread Age Cut Off

and change it to show all threads.

part two - forum specific settings
Go to the 'main' forum you want to change - in your case the 3GS forum
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-3rd-gen-2006-2011-153/
Scroll all the way to the bottom left where it says "Display Options" and change the 'from the' option to 'the beginning'


PS, posts like these should go in the sire questions and suggestions forum please (moving it for you)

 

The instructions you provided fixed the problem.

Thanks Much!
