Search functionality in user posts is terrible

Gripe #2 of the day.

 

I've noticed this before that when trying to teach for something I know I posted is really a hassle.

There does not seem to be a way to limit a search to ned own posts and this UI is rather useless searching for it page by page if you are active and are looking for a post say in page 30. You have can click on 3 and then click your way through iand wait for the page to load you don;t want to see t 27 times just to see the counter advance by one:

Hey Peter - I do agree I'd like to see a bit more filtering for the search within your own user posts.  As for going through the pages, I honestly just typically manually change the page number in the URL to the one I think it might be on (in your example, 30).

Nice workaround. Thanks!

@TrippyLighting if you click My Profile at the top of the page when you get to your profile there's an option Advanced Search, is that any better?

@brianrepp One problem on the page is the search button doesn't work, you need to enter your search and press enter.

Good catch @HughesTooling - I can reproduce and have sent to the proper folks to fix it.
