Post searching issue.

When doing a post search, It shows results, but I can't go the post. Only can click on the thread title and the poster name.
 
So, I'm confused, is the point of this to make it so that you go directly to the post that matches the search results? As it is now, I can click the thread and it highlights all matches. But, I thought OP was saying they couldn't get to the match. While that'd be nice to implement, what if there are multiple matches in the thread? Would it just go to the first match?
 
The point of the my post feature is that you can click individual results and have it take you directly to that post.

For example, clicking here:

Would redirect your browser directly to the post:

Sometimes you just want to take it a step further and go to the post in the search results, which you couldn't do before because it was removed:

Yea, okay, I gotcha. I wasn't aware that there was even an option to display the results in posts, just threads. Never really use search (usually answering, not searching, lol) so, never bothered to go into advanced search. It's a nice feature though.
 
BTW - those results are returned when you push the "My Posts" button. You do not have to visit the Advanced Search page to display them.
 
The OP never said they were trying to do a search on their posts. They just said when doing a post search, which to me is the search when you go in advanced, no? :p Either way, it still brings you to a similar result set, and, it appears to behave the same way, so, I'd say that point is moot. I think we are on the same page now, lol.
