At some time, you might find it necessary to find a previous Post, or Topic, that another member has made.
As you will see, there are a couple of different options available, that will permit you to find their Post/Topic.

1.
While viewing a Topic, click the member's Username, or Avatar.
This will take you to their Profile page.

Once on their Profile page, you will see 4 entries to the right:

Recent Status Updates
About Me
Topics - will load a list of 5, of the most recent topics they have started.
Posts - will load a list of 5, of their most recent posts
Blog


Also, under their image on the left, you will see Find My Content.
This will load a page with all of the Topics that they have participated in, with the most recent ones at the top.


2.
While viewing a topic, click the Find My Content icon, under their Avatar.
This will load a page with all of the Topics that they have participated in, with the most recent ones at the top.


3.
You can also use the forums' Advanced Search feature.
At the top of any page, to the far right of the Search field, you'll see an icon that looks like a little gear.
Clicking that will open the Advanced Search.
In the field next to Find author, type in their Username, and leave everything else at the default settings, then click the Search Now button.
The results displayed will include the Topics they have started, and the Topics they have made a reply to.
