When Craban mentioned this I had been aware of this issue and discussed it with LRM. I had wondered if the reason for what I was able to do was because of the "Mod" status. Apparently not.
Advanced search still is available to us but not in a direct way.
Firstly you need to conduct a Search, and then, at the lower left corner of the Search results appears "<Return to advanced search". That is a superficial solution I know.
LRM pointed out to me that works fine for Board and Forum searches but for Topic searches the link merely offers "Return to thread".
It was my intent to contact both Shark and Trucla about this but since both are aware I am saved that concern (From my understanding I suggest that php coders would not be able to assist as the "php" files provide a framework for "parameters" passed by the phpBB3 "style" that is installed).
