loccom Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 The PM section does not have a search feature to search PM's. Would be great to have this added as I have 1000's of PM's and can never find anything.thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariAge Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Heck yes, I could use this. I have mostly given up trying to search for PMs that are more than a few months old. I also have thousands of PMs (my forum is over six years old, first running UBB then phpBB before IPB, with everything imported!) and it's useless trying to find old messages. I've actually had to run database queries to find important PMs from the past. I'd love to see this improved upon. ..Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoo2000 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Could be useful, I'd like to see the PM system expanded slightly, My suggestion sort of builds on this suggestionI'd like to be able to mark/flag PM's, like you can in Outlook almost, so you can flag important messages you have to follow up and then can apply a filter to view just those messages, or have them alert you if you set a followup date, or something like that.

DebbieC Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I vote for this, too. As a long time user (we've been with IPB since 2004 now), I can say that it is really needed. Please give us a way to be able to moderate PMs in the same way we can moderate emails that the board sends out. We need to be able to quickly view the PMs a certain member has sent when we get reports that they are being a problem. If we can then notifying them (via our TOU) that this is a possibility, it should prevent some activity. We occasionally have someone come onto our forum with the express purpose of sending spam PMs. We sometimes have a member who PMs members and upsets them by being rude. It is difficult to moderate something we can not see. We need an IPB supported method of doing this. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybertimber2009 Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 You should re-read the suggestion. The idea of searching ANY users send/recieved PM's has been turned down many times because of privacy concerns. This suggestion is to be able to search your OWN PMs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
