The discussion revolves around implementing a “jump to next developer post” feature in Discourse. darix proposed the idea, suggesting it would be helpful in long threads to quickly find developer answers. codinghorror pointed out that visiting the group page or using the “filter” button after clicking a user avatar can achieve similar results.
However, darix emphasized the need for a more direct “jump to next dev post” feature, especially in extremely long threads. sam confirmed that implementing this feature would be possible through a custom plugin, but it would require significant work.
Later, MidnightCheesePizza revived the discussion, seeking guidance on creating a similar feature, “Jump to Next Tracked” post, inspired by Blizzard’s Forums. This feature would allow users to jump to the next post from a custom group, but the user needs help with custom code implementation.
I was wondering if the following can be done in a plugin already:
This is usually done by visiting the group page, for example, here’s our team group on meta
I am aware of that option but in this particular case the threads can get really really long at times and it would be really helpful to just have a way to skip to the next dev post. 
now that they are using discourse i was wondering if this “jump to next dev post”, which on the old forums only worked for the first, could be implemented properly.
You can also do this by simply clicking a user avatar anywhere in the topic and pressing the “filter” button, which filters the topic to just posts by that user.
A common place to do this is at the top of the topic at the topic summary …
… but it works anywhere you see a user avatar in a topic
So does this mean technically it is not possible to implement the feature right now?
It is possible to implement, but it would be a custom feature in a custom plugin. It is super specific to your particular use case.
i know. but knowing that it would be possible is a good start.
Human kind can put a man on the 
I am pretty sure a plugin can be written to introduce a custom topic filter.
It would not be a trivial plugin, would probably take a week of work.
