... a royal pain in the ass here? There IS a "shortcut" of sorts via clicking member profile, then clicking their posts tab...
... but that makes you look like a stalker after a while!!! :P

If you are logging in as private it won't show that you have looked at their profile. They will never know that you are stalking them. :D
Click on the "members" button on top of the forum page:
here is a link: http://home2.invisionzone.com/index.php?act=Members
You may search by:
Member name or must have photo or gender in the initial search fields. (your choice/s)
Above and to the right of these fields is the "toggle more options" toggle/switch which will bring up (or down, as case may be)
many more search options (I'd love to have these available to members at aspd) which include
city or state (added just last week, so many members haven't filled it out as yet)
home page or signature contains
messengers (AIM, Yahoo, etc)
post count and date
etc.
= = = =
Now here's the rub... if a member chooses to keep his/her profile private, well, it's private and some data may not be seen by other members (depending on the member class, some classes get more privilege, like bcd gets more than just registered, etc.). However, all active (in good standing) members are ordinarily visible to some degree in the list as far as I know.
I don't think he's asking how to search for a member but how to search for posts by a particular member. To do that, you can click the Search link up above, then the More Options button near the bottom of that page. There are filters for member name and date along with a few other options.

Moreover, this page doesn't do exactly that. This page apparently only enables you to search for posts that contain a member's name, which also scoops up posts created by that member. The results is just a list of the entire threads rather than just the posts.

Tell you what... let's try a little experiment...
I'm logged in invisible. I just viewed your profile. March 11... call it 9:10 or so.... see if I show up on your list.
Better check quick though... I'm guessing you get ALL KINDS of visitors! ;)
Try telling it to show results as posts rather than threads. Should come out something like this
Definitely not as easy to use as the old "show all posts by this member" link from ASPD.

Yeah, that's a little more like it. Still not crazy about the report format, though...
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (The Proper Stranger @ Mar 11 2009, 09:40 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div>Agreed. That's what I'm trying to get at. Oh well.... something for the "next release" if the powers that be here have the ear of the developers...Quote:
