link to blogs

can we please have a link to the member’s blog from their profile? the only way i see that you can go to someone’s blog is either fishing through the long list of recent entries or blogs, or finding a post by that person and then clicking on their # of blog posts from there.

Re: link to blogs

good idea. let me c what can be done.

oo. that was easier than i thought.

well thankyou! :blush:

I am a little confused. There are 2 simpler ways that I know of, are these not easy enough? Or am I missing something here? :confused:

Re: link to blogs

strange. why am i not able to view the tabs in user profile?

Re: link to blogs

I don't think you are on my friend's list. Let me send you an invite and then you should be able to see it. My blog is private, only my friends/contacts can see it. I am assuming Phatima's blog is private as well, that's why I can see her blog because I am on her friend's list. If you tried to see someone's private blog without being on their list, you shouldn't see the link. Otherwise it would be teasing because you would see their blog but when you click on the link, it'll say you don't have access to it.

Re: link to blogs

nevermind. the first screen in ur above post is for browsers which support CSS2 i think. IE does not do that yet.

Re: link to blogs

Signed in using IE and I was able to see both your and Phatima's blog's link when I clicked on the user name.

Re: link to blogs

Only mods and admins can see the above tabs. let me see if that can be enabled for members as well.

Gizzy I can see both tabs.. :fatee: lemme try banning few members now.. :rotato:

The issue I see with providing a link in posts is that if I click on a blog to read I will be told I cannot read the blog because it is private that link should also let me know that this blog is private so that I do not click on it.

Re: link to blogs

Shikra, must you always rub Modly luxuries in the faces of us plain and simple forum folk? :teary2:

I want tabs too!

:whistling:

Re: link to blogs

Both tabs? =\ What?

Oops :blush:

But don’t you see the link when you click on my username? I see it with my non-mod ID as well.

Re: link to blogs

Yea but I already said that it's inconvenient that we have to go search for a post by a member and then go to their blog. What if we just see a comment they left in a blog and we want to go to their journal from there? It would make sense for there to be a blog link in the profile so you can just click on the username, go to their profile, and go to their blog from there.

Re: link to blogs

Just click on their last activity thread/post and it’ll take you to their last post, then go from there, kids these days :smilestar: Or may be that’s enabled for mods only as well, not sure.

wait you can do that already. say i commented in your blog, and you want to go to my blog from your blog, just click on my avatar and it will take you to my blog. if you want to go see my profile from your blog, click on my nick. on the other hand, if you are on my blog and want to see my profile, then click on my avatar and that will take you to my profile.

Re: link to blogs

I just want to be able to go from profile to blog. :aj:

Re: link to blogs

you can still do that :smack: get FF. then go to their profile, and click on the BLOG tab. if they don’t have a blog tab then you can’t see their blog because a) they don’t have a blog or b) they don’t want you to see their blog :smilestar:

and it works with non-mod nicks :smilestar:

ps so whose blog are u trying to see :chai:
