Bug Cannot pull up all the posts that I have made

[vcsharp2003]

I am trying to see all the posts that I have started, but it seems there is no link anywhere that says My posts.

Could someone please let me know how I can pull up a list of all my posts? I need to do this because I want to make sure that I am not duplicating an older post.

Go to "my PF' then 'Your content.' Should be there.

'My PF' is next to the envelope top right.

'My PF' is next to the envelope top right.

I am on my android smartphone and yes I see the bell icon next to the envelope icon in top right of the screen. But, when I click the bell icon it only pulls up the last few posts in last few days. I want to see all the posts that I started to avoid duplication.

It is not the bell icon it is 'my pf'
Can you get into 'your account?' It will have your avatar. It should be in there.
'postings'
I have to tilt my tablet to landscape in order to see 'my pf' btw. Otherwise it does not show on the top menu bar

I screengrabbed
So in-between 'INFO' and the envelope you get your account drop down.
'Your content' left hand column under 'News feed.'

Tilting your screen seems to be the key here.
Other ways to get there:
Click on your name in any post. A popup window with some stats will show up, similar to what you get from 'My PF'. Click on the number below 'messages'. All your posts will be shown.
If you want just the threads you have started - starting either in 'My PF', or in the same popup window as before - click on your name once more. A different screen will be shown, with more details about your profile. Clicking on the 'Find' drop-down button (below the numerical statistics) will let you choose between displaying all your posts ('content') and all your threads.

You are right. It is simply missing on the phone version of PF. I consider it a bug and maybe @Greg Bernhardt can mention it for upcoming releases.

A workaround is to use the advanced search function (magnifier glass) and search for 'user=vcsharp2003' order by 'Date'.

That toolbar on the PF page has fooled me many times. The problem is that items appear and disappear depending on zoom level. I used PF for several years and even became a mentor before learning about MEDIA and INFO items on the toolbar.

In some cases, the vanished choices automagically move from the toolbar to a drop-down menu depending on the zoom level. That makes it very difficult to understand why users have difficulty finding things.

Here are some screen captures. On a phone screen, it might be even more drastic.

In addition to the missing "My PF", there is also a link to the non-existent app (see second image in my post above) that needs to be removed.

How about now?

'Your threads' isn't 'your content'!

 

[fresh_42]

How about now?

There is no link to 'Your content' under 'MY PF' on the phone version since there is no 'MY PF' scroll-down menu. This isn't tragic because it could easily be added under the 'Menu' of the phone version. But it isn't. So the only way to find one's own posts is through the advanced search function.

Sorry, even that three-bar symbol disappears depending on the zoom level. Only the PF logo is invariant. Long live the logo. I also just discovered that portions of that top toolbar scroll horizontally.

An alternative, until the issue is fixed, is to use "Request desktop site".

I tried this suggestion after reading your reply, but it doesn't bring up the same results as My Content under PF. I get 12 pages of posts under My Content, but only 1 page using Your Threads from main menu.

 

[vcsharp2003]

In my view, My Posts functionality should be easy to run and clearly shown in the mobile app. The Your Threads option seems to be not the same as My Posts functionality.

Yes. "Your Threads" shows all threads you started, while "My Posts" shows all posts that you ever made on PF, including those in threads started by you and others.
