How to See all posts for user IN ENTIRETY

[clio]

I need to be able to see all the posts for a specific user and all the posts in theire ENTIRETY. How do I do that? Currently the admin only shows excerpts.

Sorry I don't understand. You search for posts by someone, then you click on the links to see the complete post. What exactly are you doing?

What they want, I beleive, is to be able to do the search on the users' posts but have the entire post displayed. Currently the search function excerpts the posts.

That is exactly what I mean!

This would require changing the PHP Code. Please discuss this change at vBulletin.org.

SIGH.

But this used to NOT require changing the code.
When we were using version2 (and perhaps version 1), the admin panel had a different page that listed all posts per user that showed COMPLETE posts. Now, the admin panel link just points to the user front end.

Wayne,
We're using vBulletin on an educational site and we are completely frustrated. I personally wish we did not upgrade to vB3, and obviously since reversion to vB2 is impossible, we're stuck.

Is there someone I can TALK to about all our problems? I have posted here, but I feel as though no one who actually develops vBulletin is listening - or caring for that matter.

[Especially when they just ask me to go to another site, which requires creating another account.]

Sorry but this always has worked the same way - ever since at least vB 2.0 Beta 3. The complete post has never been included in the search results. If you did have this at one time, it could only have been added by modifying the code.

I do believe the code modification would be a simple one. Not being a coder myself I can't offer much help though. If you want this functionality, then you can request assistance at vbulletin.org. This function does require modifying the code.
