The "search this thread" button that used to be at the top of every thread is gone. Why is that? Use to use it all the time to find my own posts in a thread, or when searching for a keyword in that one thread only. Can it be brought back?

Just use the maggot-frying glass at the top of the GJ page. "This thread" is an option. (Default seems to be "Everywhere".)

It may have disappeared with a new revision of Xenforo. I talked to Ryan about a different issue the other day. He said it was due to a revision in Xenforo.

Then again, if it was redundant with the use of the magnifying glass search, he may have removed it.

Fortunately if you remember the name of the thread you could always search for it by using the Search Titles Only feature in the search bar but yeah if it is a long thread then yeah good luck though sometimes I can use the regular search function with the name of the thread and a couple keywords to find exactly what I’m looking for.

Blake, as I just found out, when you open the search box, on the right where it says "everywhere" hit the up / down arrows and choose "This thread".
