OK I asked this in another thread with no responses, here's another shot at it.

Here's what happens when I try to search for old posts by a particular PF member. The first page listing the 25 most recent posts works just dandy, and the caption at the top reads "Displaying posts 1 to 25." When I try to click on any of the other search pages to get older posts, though, the same page displaying the 25 most recent posts shows up, only now the caption reads "Displaying posts 0 to 25." Oh, the quandary! Any help?

Can some higher-up at least acknowledge my problem here? Tell me that you're trying to fix the member-posting search problem, or that the problem might be on my side because of so-and-so browser setting? Throw me a frickin' bone here!
 
IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT! j/k :smile:

That's a bug all right. Let me see what I can do.

Don't stop, hypnagogue. It's still not working. :frown:
 
This has been broken for months. I know I've told Greg about it a half dozen times. Jeez, Greg, do you need me to fix it for you? Gimmie a login...
