Hello,

 

Is it possible to narrow forum post search to include posts only from specific user? I mean, it would be great to be able to search for keywords only in posts where a certain user participated.

Example: I often find myself in a situation, when I need to find a certain post where I participated in the past, but I just cannot find this post again. Browsing through all my past posts take crazy long time. It would be great to narrow search to only include those where a certain user was involved...

After you search for something, you get optional filters on the left side of the results page, including by author, at least on the desktop version. The UI for this isn't that great, but it does work.

Hi Blokk,

 

Along with what tst stated, you may find some of these workarounds useful for searching through your (or another user's) posts:
