Displaying full text of student discussions on a single page

Question

So a student had posted something to a discussion but couldn't remember what discussion it was, and wanted to use the text for a project.

I tried the following:

* Clicked on "People"
* Clicked on the student's name
* Clicked on Grades

At that point (I am using Firefox) I was able to see a list of all of her discussion posts, and was able to ctrl-f for a key term and find the discussion.

Now, a few minutes later, I am unable to bring up that full text display again, which seems really useful.

Hi @mark_crane,

I'm not aware that you'd be able to see all discussion from all discussions that way.  If you do your step 1-3 and add a 4th step - click on the name of a discussion, you should get to a list of the posts that student made in that particular discussion.  Is that perhaps what you did the first time?

As of February 12, 2026, if you click on People and then click on the student's name (not on Grades) you get all of their discussion posts. A nice feature, if hard to find.
