You can search for posts and replies by entering keywords in the text field at the top of the portlet instance and clicking the Search button.
Note that by default, the system is set to search only for messages posted within the past 30 days, so if you are having trouble finding a post, you may want to modify the dates for the search. To do this, and optionally set other search parameters, click Show Search Options to display additional fields.
In the advanced form, you can modify any of the fields and the system will automatically save your choices until you navigate away from the screen you are currently viewing (and the system resets the form to its defaults).
