Suggestion: Search User Photos

[z00fan]

It would be nice to have a feature when viewing a users profile, near the "see users threads/content" button to see all of their posts containing photos/media.

Idk how much control we have over the site code, but It'd be really helpful

You can already do this by searching for type="full" or type="preview" in the search bar, and then searching for a specific user.

I am not sure this works. You do this with my name, it comes up with one single deleted thread. But I have posted probably hundreds of photos.

@FloofyNewfie where is the documentation for what keywords can be used this way?

Here's what I get for you:

The only downside with this method is that it'll also show posts you've quoted, that has pictures in them.

But this does not limit the search to posts containing images only.

Well it kind of does and kind of sometimes does not.

thanks!

thanks!

You're welcome!

It does, but like I mentioned it'll also show posts where you've quoted someone that posted a picture as well. Which is the main drawback. But, it's currently the easiest method we have at the moment.

Thank you so much for this, I've spent way too much time digging through entire post histories just to find a few images.

OR, you can go directly to the users profile and hit the "posts" button.

For users with >50 posts, trying to sift through to find images would take a looong time lol

Funnily enough, I was just thinking about this kind of feature. Sadly, I don't think it can be done without using a plug-in.

I'd rather be able to see a list of my own uploaded media, though.
