[SchmitzIT] User Searches is meant to be an easy way for XenForo owners to add one or two additional pre-defined searches to the navigation menu under the forum tab.
In short, it allows you to pick a name for a search, and add the names of which users you want the search to be looking for. Imagine, on XenForo.com, they want to add a search for posts from Kier and Mike and call it 'Dev posts', and perhaps a second search called 'Staff Posts' for posts by Kier, Mike and Ashley.Sure, Kier could code that in under 0.23 seconds, but with this add-on he won't have to, and neither would you!
This add-on would allow you to easily add exactly that, by means of a configuration menu in the AdminCP. Because it uses a XenForo hook to add the search, no template edits are neccessary. ZOMG!
At this very moment, it only works when 'Friendly URLs' is turned on.
A big thanks to

You must be registered for see links
for putting me in the right direction on how to add the search in the first place.Additional features for future versions:
- Support for entire usergroups, so you do not have to list individual members, but can have a search for all members in one (or more) usergroups.
- Auto-complete for the usernames (as soon as I figure out how to get that to work in the AdminCP).
- Support for when Friendly URLs is turned OFF (as soon as I figure out the proper syntax for that).
