Searching Members

JogaBonito1502 · 03-30-2010, 03:42 PM

Is there anyway to enable the feature of searching for members? Or does compromise security? I tried searching for a member's name to shoot him a PM, but it was only open to the administrator. It would be a lot helpful if I could just type their name in and go from there since I use PM's a lot.

Members List

Go to the top right and drop down the "Search Members" bar.

Hmm, when you start typing the name to send the PM to it should come up with a few suggestions. If not I guess I could enable searching

It doesn't seem to work. I mean, if it's a hassle you don't have to, but if it's a simple as logging in and clicking a check box it would help. I don't have all members' names memorized, but some I can get right off the bat.

Weird...

I can search for members in the members list without any sort of thing like that.

I can browse the list, but I can't search it. Usually what I do, is sort by reputation, and then browse until I find who I'm looking for, but it's a bit of a hassle.

Tried clearing your cookies? Logging out then in? It's not disabled - I just used it.

It still won't let me.
