I'd originally requested this a while back -- it's really a template mod. Logik figured it out and posted it here (for version 2.x)

1).
go to your forum admin CP and go to Templates>modify>postbit
---------------------------
2.)
Find:
posts: $post[posts]

And add just AFTER it:

Post: <a href="search.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=finduser&userid=$post[userid]">view posts by $post[username]</a> <br>
Post: <a href="search.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=finduser&userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]">view all your posts</a>
--------------------------
3.)
Save postbit template. and click install on vbulletin.org.

My members love this...

I tried to figure it out to make it work with 3.0.3 but couldn't get it going. Anyone?

Post: <a href="search.php?do=finduser&u=$bbuserinfo[userid]">View all your posts</a>


add that in place of the other links.

If I'm SFishy coming to VBulletin.org, I want a link to find MY posts... without having to view my own profile or post by myself. Tell me where that link is if it's a default?

by clicking on your username in any of your posts m8

if you dont want to find a post that u have done then just click on your username on who`s online.

Lasto, again I don't want people to have to find their own posts or profile, just to be able to get a list of links to their own posts... kinda defeats the purpose don't ya think? My board is very busy, and people shouldn't have to dig through posts to get this info. It's handy to just click a link that says "My posts" and have a list come up. I also don't exactly think it's convenient or easily accessible to the lay-user to have to scroll to the bottom of the page, click on your name (to get to your profile) and then click on "find X's posts".

Either way, it's NOT currently a feature of 3.0.3. It's a simple template Mod to make it work in the "Quick Links" drop down.

I added this today, very nice. Of course my members are not happy with just this, they also want the ability to list just all the posts made in the last 24 hour period. Guess I could ask how to do this.

sigh. Life as a site admin can really suck sometimes. :(

Actually, it didn't work. It shows nothing sometimes, even though there's 20 new posts up, other times it does. It also displays with the quick links not working as well. :(

Works perfectly for me. You may have a conflict somewhere else.

Just a link...

What would be a possible conflict? I didn't add a lot of hacks, just what I really needed. If it's a admin setting for options though, I can understand that, insanely complex as it is.
