Where can I find my forum posts?
Hey there - not sure if I've posted this in the right place, but I was wondering whether there was a way to find a list of my recent forum posts? It would be handy to be able to browse back through the conversations I've been a part of. Likewise it would be interesting to be able to see what other users have recently posted.
Thanks for your help!

A similar question to yours had been asked. And here is the answer, "What you can try is search for your profile name and for their profile name in the forum search bar. I find if you add the @ then it usually brings up the relevant forum threads. From there you can narrow it down. Another option at least." (courtesy of @Roadie :D)
Hi @Chevy81, thanks for the reply. I tried that before but it didn't work for some reason?
I just tried again now, and it only brought back a couple of my posts, rather than the whole lot. Any idea why that might be?
Thanks again!
@beyondearth
How many posts are the result for the search?
I tried to input my username like this "@Chevy81" and the results are viewing for my posts and posts that I was tagged. Unfortunately there isn't another way to do this, for now :D
When I search, only 2 threads come back, but I've definitely posted in more threads than that. I wonder why :/
Searching here typically brings up when other posters have mentioned you. To find your own posts, use Google.

Put your name in bold (keep that space). Hopefully that helps!
Hey @AffyAvo - thanks for the tip, but I'm afraid that's only bringing back one result for me.
Maybe I should repost in the technical feedback area as a suggestion for a future update?
They are all newer, right? I have noticed google can be slow to pick up forum posts, it may just take time, but that doesn't help you now!
I think it would be nice to have here, there's a member suggestion box:

@AffyAvo
In fact some of the ones missing are newer and some are older - it's quite strange!
Thanks for the link to the suggestion box. I'll wait to hear back from the support ticket to see whether it's a bug or that the functionality doesn't exist yet, then I'll submit my request if the latter is the case!
Thanks for both of your support :)
@beyondearth
Then I guess you should submit ticket for reporting this issue. Here is the link to Technical Support & Feedback. You also can leave your suggestions there :D Best of luck!
@AffyAvo
Thank you for your supportive help :) and nice to meet you here!
Along the same lines - why do the posts I make not show up in the threads? I had made a post to a thread and was notified that another new post had been made. When I went to the thread it was obvious that the new post was a response to mine, but my post wasn't visible. I've made a second post to the same thread and again I'm not seeing it. It that normal and if so, why? Thanks.
Hi guys - just to follow up on this one, I submitted a bug report and this is the reply:
Hi beyondearth,
We do not yet have a way to display your own recent posts, but it may be coming.
To see the newest posts by others, you can see them on the main forum page under the new button. Here is the direct link: http://www.7cups.com/forum/?s=New
Also, from your dashboard there is a "Latest in the Forums" tab that shows the short list.
Thanks for the response.
