How Do I: Find my Posted Question Thread?    

"Now that you have just posted (in this forum), here is how to find this 'thread' (your question) in the future"

"Read very carefully"

Sometimes, Bloggers may not be able to find the answers to their questions, here in Groups, because they cannot find their original question/thread.

How to find your own posts later

To find articles you've posted, you can use the author operator.

  1. In the search box, type the word "author" and a colon, followed by your posting email address. For example if you're looking for posts you made from yourname@example.com, type [ author:yourname@example.com ].
  2. Click the Search this group button to look for your posts in this Help Group.
  3. Alternatively, click the Search Groups button to look for all posts you've made in any Google Group.

You can use this same method to search for posts by other authors. If you know the posting email address, use that because it's the most accurate. 

You can also use the same author operator to search for posts by nickname. For example, if you know someone whose nickname is JoJo, you can search for their posts by typing in 

[ author:JoJo ], and so forth.

 

Another way, is to click on 'Profile' at the top of Groups page, between 'Favorites' and 'Help' - near your Email Address. All questions you have asked will be displayed there, too.

 

NOTE: No-one can see your email address, either, so it's useless to ask for  "reply to my email".
