If I want to look at my posts and click on "view posts" all I get is the threads I posted in, which is pretty useless because I still have to scroll through every thread to look for my specific post.


I know it's possible to directly link or show the posts you've made instead of showing the thread names.


thank you

[Crescent Seal]

are you talking about "find all posts" after going to your "my profile"? if so then after that list comes up you just have to click on the thread itself and it takes you to your post

[soup]

Yeah, and it should be different IMHO.


It's much easier to click on your name and to be able to see your posts instead of the thread.

For example: if I posted in a thread 10 times I have to click 10 times on the exact same title to find my specific post.

no other way to do it, i'm afraid. at least as far as i know. i played around with advanced search for a minute, but that gives the same results. you can sort by "show as posts" instead of "show as threads" but as you said, if you posted in the same thread 10 times, it'll link that thread 10 times and you have to click to see each post.

have to do some digging to see if there actually is a way to do this with just plain old vb, or if there's a plugin/add-on for it.

i feel like at one point these forums did show a list of all posts in descending order, because i used to be able to quickly find specific posts from any year.. but this was before the massive overhaul

[soup]

I thought we had the latest forum update/VB or whatever the name is?

Yep, I remember this too

I thought we had the latest forum update/VB or whatever the name is?

latest version available: 4.1.5
our currently installed version: 4.0.3

i've nagged and nagged about upgrading, but apparently we're too cheap (whilst sitting on $5000 in donations, go figure) to shell out the few bucks it'll cost.

the absolute best you can do right now is the following:

1.) Click ADVANCED SEARCH in upper right of forums

2.) Click on SEARCH SINGLE CONTENT TYPE tab

3.) Use the following settings:

	---------------------------------------------------------------

	Search Type:		Posts
	
	Keyword(s):		blank
	
	User Name: 		<enter username of choice>
	
	Tag:			blank
	---------------------------------------------------------------

	Search in Forum(s):	Search All Open Forums
	
	(CHECK box for "Also search in child forums")
	
	Find Threads with:	leave as is
	
	Find Posts:		Any Date    and Newer

	Sort Results by:	Thread Start Date    in Descending order

	Show Results as:	Posts
	----------------------------------------------------------------

4.) *Optional* Click GO on "Save Search Preferences"

5.) Click SEARCH NOW

Nobody ever once came to me with this proposal. You must have been nagging in the wrong place.
