Im trying to add a loop to authors profiles to show their latest posts and I’m wondering how you set the query string so that it pulls that authors posts. I can’t find how to do this anywhere. Just a plugin but I want to create my own loop for the sidebar.

```
<?php
global $bp;
$user_id = $bp->displayed_user->id;
query_posts($query_string . '&author='. $user_id);
?>

<h2><a href=&quot;" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to "></a></h2>

<div class="entry">

</div>
