I have two small suggestions that could make easier to navigate the Forum.

1) To be able to click in the name of any user (e.g. in the left column, in any topic) and go straight to his profile. Once there, there could be the option of listing (and seeing) all the messages posted by the intended user. I think this makes it easier to know each user and his bike(s).

2) There could be an area reserved to user's bikes only. Each user would open his own topic, in which it would post pictures, upgrades, comments, etc. about his bike. The "Picture" topic would continue to exist, but only to house photos of specific rides and meetings, like it happens today.

Thanks! Wink

1) This is third party software with no API. Not possible.

2) Not a bad idea. Maybe a subforum titled "My K Bike"?

1) but it can be done already. Even logged out I can hit the Profile button at the bottom of the post and the profile includes a "Find all posts by ...." link.

1) what's wrong with clicking the Profile button under the signature? Which takes you to right to the user's profile. Once there you can click on "Find all posts by _________" and see all that user's posts. Isn't that what you want?

2) that could be done- but the success of that forum would depend on user participation...

You're both right, of course Embarassed . The profile button does that already and allows the option to see all the messages from each user. Yes, that was my suggestion, Jim. I'm sorry, I hadn't noticed these two tools. Newbie! Embarassed

Perfect!! "My K Bike"! Very Happy At the same level of "Tech", "Campfire, "Pictures", etc. You have my vote, Flying Duck, and you can even move my "'95 K1100RS in southern Europe" topic to the "new place". Smile

Yes, it would depend on each member to update his bike's topic, but I think that's positive. Everyone would benefit, I guess, at least in terms of knowing each other Ks.

Thanks for the feedback, guys! Wink

Ted's informed me that he's going to make some changes in the near future and based on your suggestion I PM'd him that I thought it was a good one.
