He wants to display posts by a particular author, so simply limiting the 
number or records returned won't help. Instead, the query must specify the 
author.

There are various ways to do it. I will put a breakpoint and start typing 
on the shell to figure out what you want to print. One way I can think of, 

db().select(db.user_posts.ALL,orderby=auth.user.id, limitby=(0, 
whatever_number_of_post_you_want_to_display);

Wouldn't you do this instead?

user_posts = db(db.user_posts.posted_by==auth.user.id 
).select()

I agree, it would be better if we could see the code you have so far...

you may want to try the "limitby" option.

Hi loveweb2py.
Its just the same as the Reddit clone on the tutorials. All  wanted is to
modify to have such posts to one user only.

Hi Maurice,

You could do something like this:
   user_posts = 
db(db.user_posts.posted_by==db.auth_user.id).select(db.user_posts.ALL)

then show that data to just the user. Kind of hard to structure without 
seeing your database model.
