Mine show up like that, too. I don't know why.

You can go to the advanced search and run a search by "author" and your posts will be displayed.

true, but that seems like a roundabout way to get to where the "view your posts" tab should lead
doesn't matter a whole lot to me but if we have the function it should function, or else we should just delete it to clean up the looks of the forum no?

Mine is doing the same right now, but it used to work. It would give you a list of links. Something must be broken, cuz it ain't right.

Dang. Must have something to do with the new search engine not recognizing the search criteria. I will take a look. May take a while, this search engine was not easy to figure out, lol. In the meantime, search for posts by author is your workaround.

Makes no sense. I can see that it definitely doesn't work, but the "view your posts" query should be running the exact same query as "view users posts" from any users profile, or advanced search, search by author. I'll have to figure out what query is running exactly, and probably change a few lines of PHP. I'll keep looking. Thanks for letting us know about the problem!

Best workaround at present is to go to advanced search, search by author using your username. Bookmark the results page, or copy the address from the address bar and make a shortcut to it. This will allow you to do a quick search with the same results as should be given from "view your posts".
