Hi everyone - Did you know you can search JUST the posts in the MAC & Bronchiectasis Group (or any other Connect group)?
This group has gotten so big and busy (over 1800 members and growing almost every day!) that it can be had to find what you want.

Here is how to do it: At the very top of each discussion page there is a link "< MAC & Bronchiectasis"
Click it, and you get to the main list of MAC/Bronch discussions. Below the Group name is a search box - anything entered there only gives you links to the discussions and posts within this group.

The first items listed are Discussions which include the search term you entered in their title.
At the bottom of the entry is the date the specific discussion was last active.

The next items listed are Individual Posts which include the search term you used.
At the bottom is the date the message was posted.

Three helpful tips:
If you remember recently reading about a specific topic that interests you, but you can't remember where, this can help you find it.
If you recently posted something, and now you can't find it - type in a few words you remember & voila! There it is.
Finally, if a discussion hasn't been active for a long time, or a post is quite old (say a year or more) realize that the member may no longer be active, so it might take a while to get a reply.
Or find a post that is newer, and almost what you need, and post a reply to that person asking your question.

Does anyone else have tips on how they find things here on Connect?
Sue

There’s also a save/bookmark feature, which is helpful. When I really want to remember something, I take a screenshot!
