Hello, Jensen Head
I am unsure if this feature is only available to admins, I assumed that it was open to all, but perhaps you cannot see it... When you click on the link to your (or my own) user profile, do you see the user statistics section?
After testing it, you can achieve the same result by removing the * from the first field in your search menu. Only fill the author, and you'll get the correct results.
Kind regards,

Re: How can I find all the topics created by a specific user on a forum?
I felt like a bit of an idiot when I just tried to figure out how to view a user's profile page. In a topic, usernames are not links, and there is nothing in the post or its design that would resemble a link to a profile.
You are right, though, it was enough to paste the username into the "Search for author" field of the advanced search, check "First post of topics only" and "Display results as: Topics" for the search to work as I needed.
Thankee-sai!

Hello Jensen Head,
For us with the higher access rights both your username and your post count are clickable links: So we can quickly check for the info Daniel mentioned above, however for you the permissions are indeed different.
Glad that you figured out how to get that info using the advanced search!
Kind regards,
Stefan
