I have said in my profile that my forum language is English. How can I tell Forums to display only topics which are written in English? That would save a lot of scanning and reduce the number of pages displayed after a search.

Unfortunately, you can't.
It's more a limitation of phpBB2 than this specific forum I think.

Right. A workaround would be to just search a specific forum.

Thanks, adaptr, that is disappointing. I have searched the FAQ periodically for an answer to my question which, I'm sure, has occurred to many. I wonder why this is not dealt with in the FAQ?

But I find the facility to search posts since my last visit a convenient way of monitoring what's going on. That approach is negated by the language omnibus which results. Anyway, I'll have to put up with it. Thanks for informing me. Regards.
