    Accessing forum archives

    I am new to this forum (actually, this is my very first forum), and I'd like to learn how to access the forum archives and complete threads.  I get a message that the forum does not exist.  I'd love to learn from the wealth of information that's there.  Thanks for your help.

     I agree that reading from the original forum is an excellent idea. There is a lot of great info there! Just go to the bottom of the page and click the "forum archives" link. It's on top of the little tree icon. It takes you right there. The advanced search is required, as the normal search never worked.

    Re: Accessing forum archives

    Thanks, Sparklebee.  I got to the site, did an advanced search, but the responses were not complete.  They all ended in ...  When I clicked on the subject, hoping to read the entire comment, I got "the forum does not exist".  Am I doing something wrong?

     Hey Livewire! Just for the sake of scientific analysis and all, what was your search string?

    Linelle, is search string the subject I was looking up?  I wanted to learn about twisted wire diameter.  Partial answers were there, but not the questions they were responding to.

    Re: Accessing forum archives

    Hi Livewire. I went to the archives and put in a search string of twisted wire diameter, just as you wrote, no quotes. I got some hits, three perhaps. I clicked on the bolded subject and got the entire thread of 10 posts:

    Arrrghhh!  I followed your directions, Linelle, and when I clicked on the bolded subject I again got the message that the forum does not exist.  I even got it when I clicked on your link!  I cannot get the entire thread.

    Thank you for all your help.

     Hmm, I clicked on Linelle's link, and I was taken to the full thread. Livewire, I've sent this thread to our Online department. We'll see if they have any suggestions or explanations for why you can't see the full threads in the archives.

     this is an example of how using tags will help make this version of the forum better than the original.

    There's a "bug" with the archived forums we're currently addressing....

    If you are having problems viewing the archived forums, log out.  Remember the archived forums are read-only and don't require you to log in.The fix should be available shortly.  Thank you for your continued patience.

    Lori, nothing has changed since my last post.  I am still unable to view entire threads in the archives. 

    Thank you for addressing this problem.

    Libewire you are not crazy, I have the same problem and get nowhere.  I hit the link and get message not found.  I have tried it logged out, logged in, standing on my head and still nothing.  I am very frustrated, I am trying to research a new technique and only get a portion of the archived message.  I hope they fix it soon.. That is what I loved about the old site everything was there.

    Jim, on 4-25-07, you answered a question about what gauge wire to twist (doubled) to equal 18 g.  Thanks from me also.
