MSP Forum: search for user
#2
So it took a bit to investigate this, but the forum software (myBB) is not set up so that you can search for posts by a user. The search page makes it seem like you can search for one or the other, but in reality, it will find posts based on the keywords you enter, but then it will filter those down further based on the other search criteria. So selecting a user will just filter the results to posts made by that user. This would not be an easy thing to change. For now, you can go to the Members section at the top, find the member based on their name (there is a search at the bottom), then click on their name to view their profile, then you can view all posts by that user. I know it's tedious, but I can't find a faster way at the moment. If someone is super motivated and wants to download the myBB code and figure out a way to modify the search page to allow searching by a user only, please feel free - I'll be happy to incorporate your changes.

Mike
