Listing members who've posted in a thread

[Michael Vee]

Is there a tool in Talkbass to generate a list of usernames of members who've posted in a thread?

Look for a link labeled "Thread Tools" near the top of any page of a thread -- right next to "Watch Thread" (or "Unwatch Thread" if you're already watching it). Hovering over this produces a drop-down menu with a single option: "Who Replied?" Clicking on that produces a list of posters and the number of times each has posted in the thread. Clicking on that number for any of the listed members will produce a page showing that person's posts.

Outstanding, Lobster! Thank you for the reply.

Is there any way to export the list that that generates? I didn't see any way to capture it.

Sorry, no idea about that. I can't think of a reason why I'd ever want to. (Just out of curiosity I have to ask: Why do you want to?)

The best I can come up with would be to do a simple copy-and-paste into a Word document or something, but maybe one of the admins has a better idea.

It's not that difficult. Just to to the thread title in your "new posts" search and click on the number under the word "replies." The list you seek will pop up.

Don't know how to export that nor do I imagine the developers would have baked that into the software but you can screenshot it if you want.

Lobster, I did the @ callout to you in the East Tennessee Talkbass thread to share the post. The idea in that post is to do a list of people who've posted in that thread and first, post it, like a numbered club thread although ETTB is not that, and second, just to check on people who've posted who are no longer active on Talkbass. We are working on a get-together this fall and need to see who all is still active that we can invite.

Oh, I see. But I think you might have me confused with another Lobster, as I'm a long way from eastern Tennessee and never received an @ callout in that thread.

Good idea, though. I hope my suggestion about simply cutting-and-pasting from the "Who Replied?" list might be helpful.

Probably the surest way to export that list is to make a screenshot of it.

Here are your steps in graphic form, using this thread as an example.

1) bring the thread up in a new or watched list:

2) click where it says "replies" in the "views column".

And here is your list:

Hope this helps.
