Searching Conversations (PMs)

[June4th]

There used to be a way that you can keyword search your own Inbox or Sent folder. Can you do it with Conversations? I cannot seem to find a way.

No way of doing this now - I have a solution but it's not trivial to do implement - I'll try and get this added over the next couple of weeks.

sHORTY, what about user names? We used to look at a list of registered user names to remind us if we only remembered a partial user name. I don't see that ability any more.

Are you asking about searching user names, or viewing the member list? You can do both - if you type something in on the search box, you'll get usernames which match along the right side of the screen:


Otherwise, you can view/search the Member list directly from the top of the page:

Got it. Thanks.

Is there a way to search and find a partial name buried in the full username? I can't find a post I was looking for so I was going to search names for something that looked familiar. Using "glock" for example it only brings up names that start with that.

The list of registered users is so long and I don't see a "go to page" number area that we can enter to skip to a letter more in the middle of the list.

Thanks.

Hmm. That's a bit trickier. I'll try and find a solution for you.

@SERE - check out the "Member Search" option in the Members section.

 

[Matt_SERE]

Will do.

WOW! That deserves a "sticky" on "How to Search with upgrade". That is quite the improvement.

Thank you.

Matt

ETA: That is lightning fast and solved two searches instantly and accurately. I was off more than I thought and it found it as one of the options.
