Thanks that works great. I figured there was something like that, but must have just missed it. I withdraw my objections now.
That's fine and all, I didn't expect it to be changed. The custom advanced searches need to last longer than a few minutes though. I can honestly say that I have spent a lot less time in the "iOS Hacks" (formerly "iPad Hacks") section than I used to. iOS Hacks is basically only useful if you are looking for iPhone help for the most part now unless you are willing to sift through a bunch of crap which I am not for the most part. The iPad Hacks former section didn't really have much activity anyway except for when a new jailbreak came out. I'm just disappointed that I have to do an advanced search each and every time I only want to view stuff for only the iPad now, seems rather excessive to me and was not fully thought through. I guess my request now is to maybe let each member have one to five custom searches be saved permanently for issues such as this. I don't think that's too much to ask.
It is possible to create URLs that perform certain searches. It's somewhat complex to do: you need to read the source code to the search page to work out the variables and the values. For example this will show threads with prefix iPad in the iOS Hacks forum:
Thank you for that, exactly the type of help I am seeking. I didn't know the code to use and was hoping somebody else did. I will try it and get back to you. You guys rock.
Sorry, it was meant to do that but I made 2 errors
eek. Try this:
You sir are a god. Thanks so much! I'll be taking some programming courses at university soon and can hopefully learn how to better do this myself.Sorry, it was meant to do that but I made 2 errors
