My testing shown the Advanced Search to work when I enter your name and simply Corvette as the keyword as shown in the attachment.
How is it not working for you?

There does appear to be a problem with the My Recent Topics.

It is being investigated.

Searching by a forum member name only.
Example: Click on a user name and select "Find more posts <user_name>"
Brings up the results: Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.
Does this for any user name you try.

It does work if you enter a keyword.
But leave that field blank, and you won't get any results.
What if you don't really know a keyword, and just want to look at past posts from a user?
You used to be able to do that.

Yes, it is being investigated and I can confirm the results.
However, it actually has nothing to do with the new format. Just bad timing.

Didn't think it really did, it was just a coincidence.
Thanks for looking into it.
