Humble apology but how do I search previous postings?

Less than a week ago a member posted concerns about focus function not working properly on a Sony A6000. A response was made that included 3 links to knowledgeable people who were described as able to cover this topic very well for this camera.
Try as I may including launching the link that is sent to me daily for the last 9 days I was not successful in locating these links.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
btw the daily launch url although it includes the date actually launches the current offering.
Thank you for reading my request.

The site's search function is a miserable joke. It's more effective to use google against the site, like:

how to: google <search term> site:uglyhedgehog.com

as in: google A6000 site:uglyhedgehog.com

That's the best way!

The UHH search only searches TITLES.
And we all know how concise people make titles here.....

Is this it: https://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-763009-1.html

If yes, what I did was a page by page word search (ctrl F in most browsers, cmd F for Mac), first with "focus" and then with "Sony." I only tried that way because you said the thread was less than a week old and I planned to quit if I didn't find it within 4 pages
