question re: searches

[philly98459]

Hi all, new member here from Philadelphia. Have learned a ton already from just lurking. Don't have my first rolex yet but working on it. Will try to get more involved as time goes on.

Quick question. When doing a simple search in the classified thread, the results that come back are very dated (under "search this forum"). For example, if I search for just "116710", the most recent result is from 2012. And they are sorted with most result results at the top.

If I go into the advanced search, I can specify a recent date range and get current results (e.g. through today), but this adds extra steps.

Seems like I may have done something to influence the date range of the simple search. Any thoughts on how to fix this?

Any advice appreciated,
E.
