I found myself trying to remember a thread that was started by someone. I know who started the thread but couldn't remember what the thread title was. I couldn't think of any word that was used in that original post that wouldn't return a thousand hits. I searched on what I could, but everything I could think of returned several hits and none of them looked like what I had in mind. The person that started the thread posts quite a lot so looking at all of their posts from their profile won't really help. I'd like to see either a button or a search feature so someone can find all of the threads started by any particular person. Not a listing of all posts, just a listing of threads in which they were the person to start that particular thread.

How often does that come up? I usually have trouble remembering who started the thread!

At least every other week. I blame my admin days on another board... we had a button that would show us immediately what threads were started by that person and I got used to it. I do sometimes have some trouble remembering if it was between 2 people that have similar names (for instance Grrly Girl and Goofy Girl).

hmmm Grrly and Goofy now how is that similar? hmmm Sounds like two different kinds of girls to me.

Ask the community. Start a new thread, "does anyone remember..........

Looks like some of what you asked for is already in place. When you look at the reply to message, bottom left, hover and it shows you the content of what you are replying to, original poster, ...what you asked for...great work, Dizz

Whops make that top left reply area. Oooo, and also on the recent message list too! super!!!

It is a great job by moderator. But upon closer inspection it isn't quite what you were talking about, Dizzy. You wanted the start of a thread, I believe. Guess its close enough....

I can't ever seem to get message searches to work. Either I get no hits at all, or I get a coupla thousand, none of which are the one I was looking for. On the off chance that a search for the person who started the thread will help, might as well try it -- but I'm afraid a lot of the threads started off on something incidental and then someone replied with a question that resulted in the discussion we all remember -- but nobody will remember the OP or the original topic.

Woo hoo! Thanks for implementing this, Ryan! Found what I was looking for!
