General question regarding posts

David Owner/Technician Ontario Posted   Latest  

Hello one and all: Hope I am doing this correctly and have addressed it to the correct forum. In regards to member's posts. Either technical or social. How long are they archived for? Is there a way to search for old/past posts/discussions? I seem to remember at the other site the old help posts were only available for a short time period/while open. Is it the same here? Do I click on a topic and open it and it will list all posts/discussions past and present? Thank you for your assistance. KEEP UP THE SUPERB WORK. Best Regards to ALL. Happy Thanksgiving. Harley.

Hi Scott: Thank you again for your assistance. Just another question that is sorta related. I can make another post if it should have it's own separate "Life". Can one contact other members/posters privately? I played around with what I thought would get me there but I didn't get the results that I expected. I clicked on a member's picture, got his profile and only had the options to click on…

To follow up on what Scott said, there is no limit on how long you can view a message on DN. So even without searching, if you have or find a link to any message, including older messages, you will be able to read it.
