In the past it was possible to search not only on words in the article title, but also on the author's name. Many articles of interest are published in more than one newspaper or other media. Unfortunately, titles to articles may differ from forum to forum. However, the author's name is a constant. When that was still a possibility on Free Republic, I found it to be the most reliable way to be sure an article was not previously posted. Why isn't it possible to restore that capability?

Programming questions have to be directed to John. I know he's been working on lots of new features, what order, when or if they'll be implemented, I'm not sure. The mods do not have any ability to program FR.
