To find Electricpete on AMP, simply enter "Electricpete" in the Search field located above AMP and click Search. Afterward, check the upper right corner for the Advanced Search option. From there, you can narrow down your search results by date range. Happy searching! Walt.

To improve your search results by including specific keywords, you can customize the member content in the Advanced Search section. Simply navigate to the "Search" option at the top left corner of the screen and then click on "Advanced Search" at the top right. Here, you will have various options to input keywords for your search. Look for the "Posted By" option and click on "Choose Member Name" in light blue. A dialog box labeled "Choose Members" will appear. For instance, type in "electricpete" in the filter field and click "Go", then select the desired avatar on the left side. Once you have set all your search parameters, click on the search button at the bottom. You can search for content posted by multiple members using this feature.

Hey El’Pete, I noticed that the Forum Web design has been updated recently! Now, you can find the Search and Advanced Search options in the grey title bar, next to the Blog icon which is represented by a small magnifying glass. Simply hover your cursor over it to access the Search options. While the new Forum layout may not be as user-friendly as the previous one which displayed recent posts from all categories, it's disappointing to see that the recent postings list has been removed and the Search fields are now harder to find. Personally, I am not a fan of the rotating gears and other avatar images. - Walt

I appreciate your help, everyone. I found the new layout to be a bit confusing.

Sure thing! To use the advanced search, first, click on the magnifying glass icon near the top of the page. Once the search bar appears, click "More..." to access more search options. From there, type "electricpete" into the 'Posted by' field. If you have a specific timeframe in mind, adjust the 'Posted' dates accordingly. Finally, for keywords in the title, type your desired terms into the 'Title' field. Be sure to hit 'Search' to pull up the results. It might take a bit of trial and error, but with a bit of practice, you’ll master it in no time!

Sure, happy to help! First, head over to the advanced search function on the forum. Here you'll see several fields you can fill out. Enter 'electricpete' in the 'Posted by Member' field. Then, select the timeframe you're interested in. With your keywords, you have two options. You could either put them in the 'Search in Titles Only' box if you're certain the keywords are in the title. Alternatively, use the 'Search in All Fields' if you're not completely sure. Once you’ve filled out these fields as required, click on the 'Search Now' button. This should pull up all posts fitting your criteria. Enjoy browsing!

Sure, you're on the right track! Using the advanced search feature, after you type in your keyword in the "Search" bar, you will see an option called "More". Click on it and it will provide advanced settings. Specify "electricpete" in the section labeled "Posted by". You can also set a specific timeframe in the "Posted within" option. Lastly, to find specific keywords in the title, input the desired phrase in the "With title" section. Remember to use quotation marks for exact phrases. Happy searching!

You're right, most forums do have advanced search features. You'll have to look for a search option on the forum home page. Once there, enter the username 'electricpete' into the 'search by user' field. You can specify a certain timeframe, for example, by entering the dates in 'search between' fields. To find specific keywords in the title, just enter those into the 'search by keyword' section, making sure to tick the box that says 'search titles only'. Every forum interface can vary a bit, so these details may not be exact, but it should generally point you in the right direction.
