Title: Finding user gallery without link in their profile.
Post by: Dave Shepard on December 11, 2014, 05:28:53 PM
Some members post photos, but do not have the gallery link in their profile. How do you find their gallery without the link?

Like yours? :D

This is how I do it. 

1. I click on thier profile and get their member number out of their address. In your case, the address is as follows, with the member number in red.
https://forestryforum.com/board/index.php?action=profile;u=4240

2. I then click on the gallery link, and go to "my gallery" and then look at that address.
In my case it is: https://forestryforum.com/gallery/index.php?cat=10001
I then change that number to your number, plus 10000.

So yours is https://forestryforum.com/gallery/index.php?cat=14240

Yes, this way sucks. I've never found a way to automate the way the gallery links are formed to add that 10000 into the address.

Thanks, Jeff. I'll have to put the link up again. It used to be there, but must have been lost in an upgrade? So, how do we link to the gallery? :D


EDIT: Found it!

Another way, as I do it sometimes, is to bring up the Gallery. Then click on "user galleries" then click or 'jump' to the first letter in the user name and browse through the list.

Lately I keep the Home Gallery open to "last uploads" and usually browse through the daily uploads to see what is up, what may be coming up, and all the photos posted that never come up in a thread or a post.

Sometimes I just need to be poked with a stick or hit by inspirational lightning

After all these years, you now do not have to set up the link to your gallery unless you also want it to appear in all of your posts, and I MIGHT figure that one out too. 

Every single member now has a link to their gallery in their profile automatically.

Merry Christmas ;)

Thanks for being a lightning rod.  Your inspirations are still working just fine.   :)
