"View your post" - different sorting please

Post by CarlJung »

When I press the "View your posts" and "User Control Panel" -> "Show your posts" it's not sorted according to my post history. I.e. I would expect my last post to appear at the top. But instead it's sorted according to the total forum activity in that thread. There is no way to find my own latest post, or see my own posts in the chronological order I posted them. If I want to see threads sorted by total forum activity I would use the "View new posts" button instead.

Suppose I made a really witty remark on some thread and then doesn't visit L19 for 2 days. When I come back I want to see if there was any reaction to it. But I can't find it in my post history since it's drowned by so many other updated threads, threads that I have posted in before, that are updated more than the one with the witty remark in it. Ofcourse, it's there. It's just very difficult to find. Sorting by the user's chronological posting order would solve this.

If you go to your profile page, then click search user's posts, you will get a list of your posts in chronological order. Maybe we can add that to the UCP too in the new template fwiffo is making.
I'm thinking...

Oh, I missed that one. I think it's probably best to have it in UCP as well (possibly replace the current??) since the profile, at least with that particular link, don't seem to be accessible from the normal forum view. You'll have to find a post of yourself and follow the link there or look yourself up in the Members list to get to it.
