When entering a board you can select how far back you wish to browse threads, up to 6 months. This seems to determine the distance in the past a search is performed as well. What happens to the threads beyond 6 months? I tried to find a thread I initiated about repairing ill fated Norlin Era "FT" guitars. see:

While I couldn't find it by browsing I did find a thread I had posted a link within. Clicking that link, I arrived at my chosen thread which was beyond the 6 month horizon of browsability. I recall there were posted responses to this thread, but those seem to have vanished.

 

Is there a better way of finding 'archived' threads? Will these eventually dis-appear?

 

The question of these FT guitars needing repairs comes up once in a while and I like to link to it to help out a fellow Epiphony. Should I make a point to 'bump' this thread ever 5.5 months?

The first option in the drop-down list is "all".

I think that may be what you are looking for.

Thanks, RobinTheHood! I never noticed that. Has it always been there?

Hey, no prob.

Yeah, it's just easy to miss because its at the top. I still always expect it to be at the bottom for some reason.
