Description

Hi, as for my discussion https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-find-my-support-tiopics-created-in-a-support-forum-of-a-plugin

I would suggest to allow user to list his own topics when visiting a plugin or theme support forum.

Currently seems there is no way to find all user topic, for end user, created in a plugin or a theme forum.

Someone may say visiting the profile there is the activity list but this is not very useful for this because it show mixed topics everywhere.

Be able to filter and list his own topics in a specific theme or plugin forum can help to avoid duplicate issues and found back issue opened in the past.

Yes I think this will be useful.
A link like this allow the user to find all his topics so all issue that has been opened recently or in the past about that component. :-)

Patch file which creates "My Topics" link and it will link to current user profile "My Topics" page for example this page https://wordpress.org/support/users/karthickmurugan/topics/ which will list all the topics created by the current user.

When this will be implemented?
I still be unable to find my topics in a specific forum.
Hard to follow old topic created I need generate new one every time if I'm unable to find past reports.

I hope to see this implementation asap.

Replying to karthickmurugan:

Patch file which creates "My Topics" link and it will link to current user profile "My Topics" page for example this page https://wordpress.org/support/users/karthickmurugan/topics/ which will list all the topics created by the current user.

Have a my topic link in the profile is not bad but doesn't resolve the issue of this topic.
When I need find my old topic in a specific forum there is no link to filter discussions created by me.

For example today I tried to find this ticket page looking at the https://wordpress.org/support/forum/miscellaneous/

I was not able to find my topic.
Opening https://wordpress.org/support/users/peopleinside/topics/ is not helpful because I have too many topics and it's not easy find what I need.

What I expect is to open a support forum of a plugin or WordPress and filter the list discussion showed and created by all user to look to just mine topics on that forum... so I can read my discussion, my issues and maybe decide to continue the discussion on that issue or to create new one referring the old one.

Currently if I open a specific plugin or Wordporess forum I can just see all topics created by users.
No way to find a list of my request just on this forum.
