Finding a member's stories?

[BgDaddy33]

Maybe this is a stupid question and I am overlooking something very obvious but...

Is there an easy way to find a member's stories from here (forum)? I seem to have to go back to lit.com, and do a search by author.

I would think there would be easy way to click directly from a member's profile? I click on "posts" but I just get the forum threads that they have participated on.

I don't think there is, no. Presumably that's part of why so many forum posters include links to their stories in their signatures and/or in their profiles.

@BgDaddy33 The forum side and story side member profiles are separate, so the best way to find authors is through the Search.

The quickest way to get to the Author Search from here is to go down to the bottom of the page, click on Stories, then scroll right down to the bottom.

Search Authors is in the right side column, second from the bottom.

Many authors (me included, hey I’m an author, who knew?) include a link to their story page in their signature lines.

If you are reading this on a ‘phone, then turn it to landscape to see the signature.

Cool, thanks for the responses. Glad I'm not overlooking a button.

Thanks @EmilyMiller for the landscape tip. I'll try that next time before switching over to do a search.

No problem . Enjoy AH!

Or click on the avatar/name, and then click on the name again in the little pop-up overlay, and then click on the "about" tab. That tab displays the signature even while in portrait mode.

3 clicks to find out whether someone links their stories in their signature is a lot of work to potentially find a pot-o-nothing at the end.

I never knew that. I browse on a PC.

You may want to check your settings. You can toggle the ability to see signatures off and on.

Try turning the PC sideways.

That worked, thanks.
