Advanced Search ?
Is there a way to set up search parameters to cover periods of time between the default search times? To further explain, I know I can search for my posts for 3 Months ago and newer and 6 months ago and newer but with only 250 hits allowed there is a lot of time not covered between those 2 searches. Same for 6 Months ago and older and 1 year ago and older. There's a lot of material missed with only 250 hits.
Thanks for any help.

If I understand you correctly, you're saying there is a too big of a gap between the 3-6 month selection, and the 6-12 months setting?
Although the searches are limited to X amount of returned results, you can refine them by selecting specific forums/sections and using specific keywords. This narrows down the results so that those returned results are more relevant.
With as much content/posts as CorvetteForum has, it becomes difficult, and database intensive on the server, to serve up that much content. This is why the results are limited to X amount.

Yea, sort of. I'm trying figure out how to fill in the gaps between the 250 normal hits. I was wondering if there is a hidden trick to configure the search terms........like maybe one specific month at a time or something else. I don't care about the number of hits, I just want to cover a complete time period, basically the past 2 years.
