Hello, I'm Nina! I'm a user from Taiwan.
I created a forum with some friends to write novels. But when someone is serializing, other people will commente it at same time. It will be hard to find the author's posts.

Therefore, may I request that we we should have a new function for only show the author's posts?
Furthermore, if every post can show the number, that will be helpful.

For example, please check this website.

And I made this picture for explanation.


The website have three posts. I can know that with the number on the right.(the red one)
And if I click the button on left(the green one), I can only see the author's two posts.


When posts are increasing, the two functions will be convenient!
My users really need these two functions and we hope we can get your support.

I'm sorry for my poor English and hope to make everyone correctly understand what I mean.

So you want a button in a topic to click to show only the topic starter's posts?

Yes! This is my main request.
And if that is practicable, I hope to have one more column to show the post's number.
Thank you!

It depends on the version you use.  Some versions have numbered posts/messages.  Also there are tutorials to add numbers to posts/messages for the ones without them.

Hi @nina81331

I'm a user from Taiwan,too~

I very much agree with your "just look at the author"
I have also asked about it, and I have made an explanatory diagram to ask, but I did not find a good idea to solve it.

And,I learn this for #1,#,2,#3;you can eference

Thank you for providing the tutorial and the perfect picture!
I have revised it.

真的非常感謝您的幫忙!在這裡看到看到台灣人太感動了~但也很羞恥讓您看到我這麼破的英文XD
不知道他們能否處理這個"只看作者"的功能，我目前有找會寫程式的朋友幫忙看，
因為無法私訊您，如果有好消息我會在這裡回覆的!!!

Now I asked my friend who can use programming language to try to create the button I need.
But she said that she could not find the code which can catch the topic starter. And that is the key to create it.
@SLGray May you help us with it? Thank you.
