One finds it on your profile! Never works in the app in my experience but on a computer, go to your profile and you can see your posts, your comments, past activity, etc!

well you can imagine with my volume of posts it would take me a month to find something that is 2 to 3 months old.  be nice if I could just type in Charleston new build and that thread popped up.. is there a way to do that ?

Well, personally I think the site's AI search SUCKS, so I use the "classic search" option from the "my discussions" or " followed discussions" page. That works better for me.

    Bigger pockets search function is incredibly bad.  However Google search is great.

    I typically use Google. Put in my name and something about the post on BiggerPockets. That is the best search engine compared to the BiggerPockets site.
