Is there a way to search posts by author?

Title says it all!

Sure is. Just click on the user's profile and then click on "search all user's posts" or something like that.

Best of luck,

Lauren

I've tried that, but it lists all posts, no matter who authored it.

Oh, you want only threads started by a certain member? I'm not sure how or if you can do that.

Exactly.

Use the main search link. There is a place to put the user name you're searching for. Then on down switch to search within "first post only". That narrows your search to return all topics started by a given user. Is that what you wanted? For "MamaSheepdog" for example, doing so gives 61 results (as opposed to the 900+ for all posts).

Yes- that's exactly what I want to be able to do. Thank you very much!

I can now gain further insight into the workings of all of your minds!!! MWA-ha-ha-ha-HAH! :twisted:
