Pre Jan. 2009 Discussions?

[jillnado]

Anyone know where to find material that was discussed on this board before Jan. 2009?

They are there, the only reason I know they wouldn't show up is your user preferences. Here is how to check:

First, you have to be logged in. Click on "User Control Panel" . You should see it on the left hand side near the top on just about any page, including this one. It should be just above the title for the topic, "Pre Jan. 2009 Discussions?" if you are looking for it on this page. You can right click it and select "open in new window / tab" so you can flip back to this page easily to follow the rest of the instructions.

That will take you to a page with various information in tabbed format. Click on the 3rd tab from the left, "Board Preferences"

On that page you should see three menu option on the left side near the center of the page. Click on the third one down, "Edit Display Options"

There you will see a list of options in the center of the page. Make sure "Display topics from previous days" and "Display posts from previous days" (7th and 10th option down respectively) are set to "All topics" and "All posts"

If they are already set to that, I have no idea.

We talked about this at the meeting, but in case anyone else was wondering: Jan 09 is actually when the board officially switched planning over from burningass to the BBS. The BBS did exist before then, because Ben had set it up for rideshares and ticket exchanges, but there was no actual planning traffic until Jan 09. And I'm pretty sure the older ticket/ride posts have been deleted each burn, since it's confusing to keep the old ones around.

Whew, thanks Joanna, but I couldn't find it there. I finally went to check everything that I've posted about under "view your posts" and finally found it there. Very funky. Thanks for the guidance.

Hah, I'm dumb. For some reason I forgot it was 2010 and thought Jill couldn't see anything older than 2 months ago.
