Search within titles?

I was wondering why there's no ability to search titles alone? (I've seen that on other message boards like this, and it would shorten time searching)

ThinkPads.com is running on what is now a fairly old version of phpBB, which doesn't readily support that functionality.
There are longer term plans to update the ThinkPads.com system software, but there is no specific schedule for when you will see any change.
Cheers,

From what I understand, there is a phpBB mod available which is supposed to add this functionality. Bill Morrow has been very cautious when it comes to fiddling around with the board software. Perhaps when the board is updated next and/or moved to another server, this could be implemented.

Thanks for the response.
One worry though....aren't old versions of phpBB easily hackable now? (I remember seeing other boards post they had to upgrade due to that)
