Recent Changes @ FreeRepublic 12-Oct-2001
Posted on 10/12/2001 7:46:38 PM PDT by John Robinson
Making changes to the Self-Search function, and in particular, how the database is organized in relation to Self-Search.
Self-Searches should now be lightning quick and should span many months. The current index holds about 6 months of data (all I have available.)
TOPICS: Miscellaneous

Yep, works for me! I'm very happy I won't have to do 14 different posts for my bump list now.

These new changes work great, much faster than earlier today. Infinite To: buffer is a great idea, too. Good job John & everyone else who helped.

It's still on the other search pages. I'm sure when he's finished it'll be back on the self-search too.
To: CounterCounterCulture
You wanted to be pinged? I'm sorry. I didn't know.
To: CounterCounterCulture
I hate to leave someone feeling lonely and unpinged.
To: Dakmar
John did it all. We just get to help test! This is fun!
To: 2ndMostConservativeBrdMember

I was gonna slit my wrists, but now I feel the love (and the pings). Thanks!
To: John Robinson
Is this why I havn't been able to get "Self Search" to come up for two or three days, or am I having another problem?
To: 2ndMostConservativeBrdMember
OK, so now I'm clueless :-). How did you manage to bump, ping, or ring all of us in one swell foop..... I mean fell swoop?
To: 2ndMostConservativeBrdMember
Interesting. I was pinged on this post but I didn't see my name, so I clicked on "Old Style" and 1/2 of Free Republic was listed in the "To:" section. What a huge list!
I'll have to get used to this new-fangled FR. So far, so good!

To: John Robinson; xm177e2
Great! Now, can you add a feature to search within your self-search using keywords from articles' headlines? Then we would be able to track down old posts from long ago...
Apparently you can't flag imaginary people now. That must be why we have to register all of our bump lists with FR Central Command =)
So we type in the name, and you replace that with our FR ID#s in your database... I LIKE IT! GREAT WORK!

To: Syncro
It's almost like lounging in a deckchair aboard an oceanliner watching the fishies swim by, and pondering the purpose of porpoises (or, somthun' like that), knowing that the ship's controls are being attended to by the genious co-captain.
Isn't that what makes a good cruise, after all? ; )
Full speed ahead.
Have FRun, Syncro. : )
To: Sueann
Sueann, do what I do. After sending the FRmail, back up to the 'write message' screen (the message should still be there), change the name to your screen name and send the same message to yourself. My messages sometimes go through several re-writes before I finally send them. It's very handy to review exactly what you said. I also do this if I'm in the middle of a long message and am interupted. Then I can go back to that message and use cut & paste to finish my message.
