Click on "View user's profile" below.

Then click on "Find all posts by i" on the subsequent page.

Does it work for anyone here? It used to work, and now it doesn't.

I'm wondering if it's because one of the upgrades has affected the ability to search for posts from users with names that consist of only one character.

Find all posts works for other members. My suspicion is that your user names are low on character count and I think some how they are being rejected.

The user account "myself" works fine, but "i" and "me" both fail to return results. There is no option anywhere I can find in the control panel to adjust minimum search lengths. I'll have to find out if one of these upgrades did make a change to this option. I don't recall seeing it in any of the release notes.

the search function on phpbb only indexes words that are 3 characters or more (used to be 4). This is likely the problem.

I do not know how to fix this either.

The search based on author used to work here. Even for "i". If there's no fix, so be it. I at least wanted to mention it as there is more than one person here with a 2 character name...
