'Life of the Party'
Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
Not sure which thread this should go in but isn't this quote misattributed?
You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture. Giles, 'Never Kill A Boy On The First Date'
Didn't Giles say this in 'Reptile Boy'?
Here's a Search feature suggestion that just occurred to me -- to be able to search a specific thread for a phrase and/or poster -- mostly because I want to look for all my first reactions to Firefly here and see how my reaction to the series evolved, without going through every single post I've made everywhere else, which is perhaps unfortunately quite a few....
The current search function allows you to search by poster, although it doesn't do phrases yet. (You can put a phrase in, but it will be parsed as individual keywords.)
Connie, as a very rough workaround you could temporarily unsubscribe from all the other threads!
You can search a thread by adding the thread_id to the search page URL, e.g. you can search this thread by using [link]
search.php?thread_id=n (where n is the thread number) get you the option of searching a single thread.

Ooh, very cool! I love undocumented features.
You can search a thread by adding the thread_id to the search page URL...
I sometimes use it to look up a particular person's COMM oeuvre. It's a great way to spend a dull moment. (I'm checking out Madrigal's work as we speak.)
Hee. Tee hee hee. HeeheeheeheBWAHAHAHAH!!
There is no phrase searching, but the posts are sorted by some arcane formula for relevance, so the hits near the top should be closest to being the actual phrase.
Non-tech geek person asking a question-- Hopw do we know what the thread ID is?
