What happened to being able to search for all the posts a user had recently made in a particular forum?

I just got an email from some user on here who only has one post, but I've no clue what he's on about and the email was quite obscure. If I search his name, I get his cell, but no mention of the thread he's posted in.

I use to use the "search by username" feature a lot.



Oh and there's a bug in the "advanced search" in the Javascript for expanding and collapsing the check box options. It has some issues when you use the back button, as most browsers will restore the previous state of the form elements, which means items previously checked are collapsed, causing them to work in the reverse order. So when you click it, it clears the check box but expands the nested options - and checking the box collapses them again. That needs to be changed to so that it queries the current "checked" state of the checkbox as to know if it should be expended or not, instead of assuming all of the boxes will be cleared to begin with.

If you're in his/her cell, simply click on his name to see the backlink page. For example, this is yours.

Hope that helps,

I guess that's a question for Tyberius Prime. It may be side effect problem in the LIMIT clause of the backlinks that returns nothing if there's only one post.

my personal bet would be that the post (login) counter just starts at one (since signing up could be constructed as a post), and the user just does not have any.
