Participated Threads

[moman]

Is there a way for XF to search for threads in which a member has participated (i.e. search for all posts but display the results as threads)?

In vB the URL for this would be:

search.php?do=process&u={user_id}&starteronly=0&showposts=0&exactname=1

Of all the search options on my current forum, my users find this one the most useful, so I hope it's possible to get a URL for this kind of search in XF as well! If not, then it's coding time

Check these out:

• Find all content by moman
• Find all threads by moman

Thanks for the reply. I know those exist, what I am looking for is a search that returns all of the threads I've posted in but not necessarily started, so it differs from the two above.

http://xenforo.com/community/search/member?user_id=2564 seems to pull all the topics you posted in.

Right but it shows multiple posts per thread - the idea here is to only see each thread once.

Use advanced search.

I saw that it's possible via advanced search. Is there any way to convert that search to a URL? The ultimate goal is to add a link directly to the search results in the header, like I have on my current forum.

sort of.

go here:
http://xenforo.com/community/search...1&q=xenforo&t=post&o=date&g=1&c[user][0]=2564
and click [Search]

I know, not exactly want you wanted

This should work.

Works! Now, as long as the username is url-encoded then this should work just fine if added to the header.

Thanks
