I am searching for the questions posted by me (user:139150) that were answered by another user.

https://stackoverflow.com/search?q=user%3A139150

His ID is: 55159

https://stackoverflow.com/search?q=user%3A55159

There does not seem to be any way to search for posts where both the users are involved.

  • @JohannesKuhn I guess you want me to do something different but I've no clue what you could possibly mean....

  • Site search returns matches per post, and as each post only has one author you cannot do this with the site search. You'll have to use other means, such as the data explorer or Google. Technically, it should be possible to add an index for answers to include the question author, but the usecase is, I suspect, rather specialized and rare enough not to warrant the additional dev time and space requirements.
