UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums General Suggestions and Feedback Adding a recipient in a PM

Not sure if this has been requested already, but even if it has I think it is worth repeating. Currently there are only 2 ways to add a recipient for PMs: 1) Buddy List menu, or 2) manually typing in a username, which assumes you know what it is and how it is spelled. It's this second method which I find most difficult as I often forget the actually spelling of some usernames.

I would like to have the ability to click on, for example, a "To" button which takes you to the "User List". And, once there you can do a search and add one or multiple names using the "Ctrl" key... a feature commonly seen in many e-mail clients.

Thanks for giving this some consideration.

i've done this as a mod for Mitch @ ctfisherman.. using ajax, you start typing letters and it auto completes in place (really suggests) with a drop down

works good and i'd expect that kinda feature to be in using YUI.. i used prototype, scriptac but very similar implementation, i'd expect..

I'd like to see it implemented, too.

It is definitely a handy mod that works great.

I totaly agree.
If you are only sending a PM to one person it is fairly simple.(Profile,User List,ETC)
But if you want to send to multiple recipients it is a real pain.
