Bikes owned in users profile / how to search for a Buddy !
 

Can i make a suggestion to Webteam that it might be nice to get an extra field in a users profile for bikes owned which could even be added to the postbit ( the bit at the top right of a post).

it follows a comment in another thread about not being able to see what bikes someone has if sigs aren't displayed. even if its not displayed in the postbit it means you can click a user profile and check it out anyway.

Good idea Gizmo

I would also like to see everybody have a location under their avtar so that we can see who lives around us and are local contacts for a meet or a drink!

It all promotes friendship within the club and a mutual intertest.

I live in Coulsdon in Surrey and don`t really know of anyone near me!

I`m all alone boo hoo!

Yep - nice idea Giz.

I can see that for owners with 20-odd bikes (Skidlids) and those who have to have the highest post count each day (Domski...etc etc)
it might lengthen the post size considerably ;)

Seriously thou - yep - most users should have a bike on their profile, I've asked a few users to specify a model recently when they are
trying to buy / sell parts and have forgot to say which it is.....

Rob - 68 users listed for Surrey alone.

Searching by location (as long as a user has entered one) is not too hard really....

1) Go to the members list:

http://www.ducatisportingclub.com/memberlist.php

2) Look for the link 'Search Members' roughly down from the login area.

3) In the 'pop-up' that appears - select: 'Advanced Search'

4) All sorts of search options will then appear - in this case stick 'Surrey' in the location field and press your Enter key and your local buddies will appear.

erm.......I'm in Merstham, Roy (Dougal) is in Redhill

thanks Frank, I think it's possible to limit the length of the field in postbit or restrict the amount of characters on input so that would solve the longpost bit problem :)

Dont talk to him Rob - show off with (another) big garage....lol !!

sorry Nat, what was that ? I can't hear you clearly with all this echoing in here ! LOL
