This hack can be used with v3.6.10 and v3.7.x. This has not been tested with earlier versions of v3.6.x, but should work.


What Does This Hack Do?

This is a simple hack adds extra options on the Search drop down list on the navbar which allows your members to search for their own posts and threads start by themselves.

Please elaborate, i.e. tell me exactly what the issue is, what you are doing, and what errors result, maybe even a screenshot or two to show the errors. Then I can look at it.

Hi Mosh, tried with 3.7.3 pl1 (with vbadvanced) and no link showed in the search dropdown menu. Permissions were set correctly.
