Usage

getUserWallSearchCount(user_id, query, access_token)

Arguments

user_id

A numeric user ID. Available from the user's page (see Details).

query

A string to search on a user's page.

access_token

Your access token (see ?makeAccessToken).

Details

Many users have their ID as part of their URL address (e.g. https://vk.com/idUSERID, where USERID is a sequence of numbers). In the event users have screen names that do not show their ID in the URL, one can access them by clicking on the user's post (or photo, video, etc.): the post will open with a new URL of the form https://vk.com/SCREENNAME?w=wall-USERID_POSTID). Pass USERID (without the minus sign in front of it) to the function call.

Value

Numeric (the number of posts/replies that mention a query string)
