 * Hi.
 * Is it possible to filter products by author? I note each product is similar to
   a custom post type but I can’t find a way to list all the products created by
   a specific user.
 * Many thanks.

 * Hi there [@profusion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/profusion/),
 * I hope your well today and thanks for your question.
 * This is certainly possible, you’d need to use the author parameter and query 
   the custom post type, as shown here [http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts#Parameters](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts#Parameters)
 * Thanks!
 * Kind Regards
    Jack.

 * Hi Jack
 * Thank you for looking into this for me. I am a bit in the dark though (I’m only
   capable of doing basic php). I was hoping to generate a link on each Buddypress
   user’s profile header that would lead to a list of products in MarketPress of
   which that user was the “author”. With conventional posts it would be something
   like:
 * `<a href="http://example.com/author/'.$username.'">My Posts</a>`
 * For MarketPress it would be (replacing the XXX’s)
 * `<a href="http://example.com/XXX/'.$username.'">My Shop</a>`
 * Many thanks.

 * Hi there [@profusion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/profusion/),
 * Ah I see 🙂 Is this on a multisite or single install you want to do this? Please
   advise 🙂
 * Thanks!
 * Kind Regards
    Jack.
