slotperfect 7 #1 October 21, 2003 What happened to the "Skydivers" link on the home page? How do I search for people now? Help please?Arrive Safely John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 15 #2 October 21, 2003 I asked the same question. Features will be coming back, it just takes time to do it after the upgrades Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sangiro 4 #3 October 21, 2003 I've opened up a few additional fields to search profiles on. Go to: Who's Online --> View Member Directory Try the search function at the top. It has a drop down to select which fields you'd like to search. Any other specific fields in the profiles you'd like to search on?Safe swoops Sangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slotperfect 7 #4 October 22, 2003 The ones I usually search are first name, last name, user name, home dz, state, country. Thanks, HH!Arrive Safely John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 15 #5 October 22, 2003 I'd like to seach by Home DZ. Its nice to be able to look up posters DZ's before you travel to a new DZ. Also by their real name. Some times I've met a jump and know their real name but not thier screen name.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gerryfuss 0 #6 October 22, 2003 that search only lets you pick one option at a time, will the search that lets you pick multiple options be returning? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fields 0 #7 October 24, 2003 I would use the keyword search. I'd enter the names of cities in my area to meet local jumpers. Erik"And the sky is blue and righteous in every direction" Survivor Chuck Palahniuk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ernokaikkonen 0 #8 October 30, 2003 >Any other specific fields in the profiles you'd like to search on? Well, the HomeDZ one is one I use quite a lot. The thing is, the searchword has to be written exactly the right way to get the right results. And, especially with the homeDZ field, there are usually several variations of writing down the name of a DZ. So, any chance of wildcard searches or something? ...Or a 'really advanced search' where you could write an SQL-search to get exactly the results you want?

ScratchTX 0 #9 October 30, 2003 I liked being able to search by any (public) field in the profile database -- to find, say, other Racer jumpers in Texas, or other people at a particular dz with CRW as their first preference, etc. Is it possible to return to that kind of search? Also -- I liked being able to see the date that the profile was made, and the date it was last updated. Gives a sense of how "active" it is, and how current the info in it may or may not be.

sunshine 2 #10 October 31, 2003 I would just like to say something. Rather than make a post in talkback, i checked this forum to see if this problem had been discussed. After reading this thread, i was able to do my search. If everyone was such an angelic dzcommer like me, this place would be so much better. Thanks again Sir Willem for such an awesome site. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alanab 0 #13 November 2, 2003 Quote Any other specific fields in the profiles you'd like to search on? home dz, nickname, and also if we could do multiple searches at once. like by first name and home dz! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flygirl03 0 #14 November 4, 2003 If you don't want to add a drop down selection to search by DZ, could you add the DZ to the members directory page? then a state search would help narrow down searching for a specific DZ. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ earthbound misfit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sangiro 4 #15 November 4, 2003 All, I am not going to make a broad search available again. I will add the Home DZ search when I have time. I'll consider opening other options over time.Safe swoops Sangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gerryfuss 0 #20 January 29, 2004 QuoteI am not going to make a broad search available again. Can I ask why not? How about why was it taken away in the first place? It was really nice to be able to search with multi variables. Right now for names it's search by either first name or last name and not even both together. I really enjoy this site but am dissapointed with the removal of this service. Please bring it back...... please? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
