Could we restore the "posts" list to a member profile?

Not everyone selects "journal" when they post, and if they're posting a response to someone else, they can't.

But sometimes I want to see all of a DUer's posts, or at least the recent ones. Used to be able to do this by clicking on their user name and viewing their profile. Now, without the old "advanced" site search options, you can't even see all of someone's posts by using their username as a filter.

Anybody else want to restore the user post list to profiles? Should this go to the Administrators' forum?

hopefully,
Bright

On DU3 there wasn't a quick way to see a member's recent posts, other than by using the search function. One of the DU4 upgrades was to add a member's five most recent posts to their Profile page (also, five most recent recs and five most recent poll votes). They now appear in the right column (or at the bottom on mobile).

It used to be that the member profile had a tab "posts" that listed a pageful of recent posts by the member, in order.

I know the five most recent are on the new version, but that's not really very many if you're wondering what a person is interested in generally, not just at the moment.

Would be nice to see if there's ever another update.

hopefully,
Bright
