Will There Ever Be an Improved Classified Alert?

[Mscdman]

I am sure this has been asked a million times, but are there any plans to upgrade the alerts settings?

It would be really nice to be able to get alerts from only a particular forum for a particular term.

For example, I cannot current set alerts for all "side mirrors" from Ghia.

I can only set ALL side mirrors from all forums or ALL ghia parts.

I have thought about this but to do that, it would not be instant.
Most/All people want the alerts instantly.

In your example:
You cannot alert on a phrase like side mirrors - you have to alert on a single word, like mirror.

For specific searches like you are doing I normally do a search and bookmark it in my browser. Of course this is not instant either - you have to run it.

I will think about it again.

Thanks Evertt.

While I have you, I also wanted to ask you about the search tool. I have been asked by moderators to create 1 single thread that contains all of the questions I have.

For example: I create a thread called "Ghia Questions" and load up the thread with a lot of differing topics, gathering lots of differing replies.

A user wants to use the search tool to look for a question that may be contained within my thread. The search for a term, that returns my thread which may have that question or term in it.

Here's the rub - my ONE thread may have many pages of responses. A user that clicks on that thread seems to have to work all through the pages to find their answer.

Question : Am I just not searching correctly, or is there not a way to be taken to the specific search "term" when clicking on the thread result from the search tool?
