More than that you need to put them in your journal and archive them

I don't recall if it is a quantity or by a date.

Use the advanced search

Fill in the Post Author field only
Set the dates for the time period you want to see

Don't put anything in the Search term(s): box (this seems to be the one that times out)


If you want to see your original posts leave the selection on Titles
If you want to see all your posts change it to say all posts

I did this. Couldn't find what I was looking for. Not sure of the date and if you search for a wide range of dates you get timed out.

That is a very effective way to do it. I saved posts and links to posts in a spreadsheet while working on MIR Team.
