Menu item for list of user articles

This is a really dumb question, but I would have assumed that User Page (Blog) menu item would show the registered user his/her articles. However, the settings require me to enter a specific user. I just want a menu link that will go to the logged in user's list of articles.

Any help?

Thanks!

It's not a dumb question.
The User Page will only display a certain user's posts.

You can use the latest items from users menu type to display items from multiple users but It is not possible to determine which user is currently logged in.

Thanks for getting back to me, Krikor. So is there some other way that a registered user can easily see the articles they have written, aside from manually going through all the articles?

Apart from the backend, each user's page (some templates might not display these items) shows unpublished items.

This means each user has to navigate to his own page.

I don't have the authors shown anywhere - they are all hidden when looking at an article or category. So I'm guessing there is no other way to find it, huh?
