Can we have an option to search titles only? Thanks. :cool

IMHO this is of more use than search message text only. :bigups

I am not a programmer, but maybe someone is around who is good in PHP?

That would be me. I have been working off and on on making FLM search better (all work so far still lives on my own computer only, except for a minor change I sent to ghost and he installed.) My main idea so far has been to make searching for just "*" work again like it did until the board upgrade early this year (it used to give a list of all messages starting from the latest and going backwards, and I used that feature a lot to find recent messages which had dropped off the 'Show new messages' list.) I also want to figure out why searching for multiple terms seems to fail sometimes, or whether that's my imagination.

I will look at what it would take to implement 'Search Titles Only', in FLM it does seem to make more sense than 'Search Message Text Only'. Thanks for the suggestion!
