    Finding user boards

    When you're trying to contact a user, you usually write on their board. In order to do so, you have to either find a post to click their icon, or know their id to open the URI
    (mywot.com / user / id).

    Wouldn't it be useful if you could open the board with the username in the adress bar too, like it is on sites like YouTube? That could save you from looking up a post all over the forum.

    (mywot.com / user / username)

    Just a thought...

    Hmmm

    That would be an interesting thing to add, though since your username can be changed, the URL might be inconsistent.

    Actually

    If you click the search button on the right.

    Then chose Users, and search for the user in the search box on the left.

    You can find that user. Hope that helps!

      Kewl

      Never knew that. Thanks much for the tip.

      That would seem to solve the issue raised by FlyAqua.

        Yeah, I didn't notice that either. Thanks for the tip.

          Newsletter

          Hey Deborah,

          This definitely seems like an obscure capability. While it may get into the new WOT Wiki eventually, how 'bout a brief piece on it in the next newsletter?

      Never noticed that

      I never noticed there was a Content and Users in the sidebar on the search results. Thanks.

    You're welcome

    Wow, I guess that isn't easy to find. :) It should be in the next newsletter, if possible.
