BurgessLau Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 The ObjectivismOnline.net software has many features. I have not, however, found a way to locate my own posts, for particular topics. For example, I know I have written about the idea of a central purpose in life (career, basically). How can I locate the posts in which I wrote about that subject? Is there a feature that lists each member's posts? Or must each member perform a search?

DavidV Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 You can also do an advanced search and filter the results by your username. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurgessLau Posted February 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Click on your own Username to the left of your post above. Then click on "Find the user's posts". Fantastic! So that is how others managed to reference their own posts so quickly! Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurgessLau Posted February 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 You can also do an advanced search and filter the results by your username. Thank you. I have been aware of the search functions. However, the results of my trying to use it in the past were very poor. This morning, following your suggestion, I tried a technique I saw mentioned several weeks ago: I put the keywords in quotation marks, like this: "central purpose" -- and it worked. I notice that the search still looks for single words (such as purpose) to highlight as well as the whole phrase. Do the quotation marks tell the search machine to look for the keywords as a phrase -- as well as the individual words singly? In other words, how can I get the machine to search for a phrase only as a phrase? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
