MetaDowN Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Hello to all whom it may concern :) I am fairly new here but in my short time i have noticed I cannot (Initially) search by author. I think this would be a great asset to an already great site. I love the layout and all the options but to be able to type in a authors name and do a search that way would save myself and others alot of time. :ph34r: Thank you for your time and an already great site!

Dark0ne Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Searching for files by author would be a bit hard and resource intensive. However I could produce a search which searched for members LIKE the name specified in the search and it provides a list of members which you can then click on to view their uploaded files. Not quite sure it'd be that useful when you can just click on an author's name and see them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Povuholo Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Like so?Dark0ne, could the link to the authors page also be in the forum account's profile? So if I click on Abramul's profile on the forums, I can find a link to the page in his post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite sure it'd be that useful when you can just click on an author's name and see them! I think it could be handy, it's easy to find the files through that kinda search but there is no option to do that kind of search for authors...I leave it in your hands as to decide if its worth it lol you're the one that would have to do the work for it. ;D I just find myself looking for a mod and cannot find it easily (at times) even though i know who the author is. Thank you for you're reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
