An shortcut to members of the forum in the bottom would be nice ,
then it would be easy to find members to send an message to .

Just open the "My Messages" tab. Then click on the little question mark in the "To" field and you will get a search form.

At the top it says:

"Home" "Help" "Search" "Profile" "My Messages" "Members" "Chat" "Logout"

Click members and you will be shown a list of members in every category.

This is like the phone system in the USSR used to be. There were no directories, if you did not know who you wanted to call, you had no business calling them. :P

In the OP you said it would be easy to sent them PMs. I showed you how to find someone to send them a PM. So you should have what you want? Or are you now changing what you want?

In a locked thread (http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=449.0) SPIFFEN mentioned that he would like to have a list of members to browse. In SMF forums, that is a little bit of a security exposure. Often bots crawl member lists to harvest email addresses for spam lists. Many people do not take care to hide their email addresses in their profiles.

I think Virgil just turned off the ability to browse the member list. It makes for less administration hassle in a forum.

All the rest was just to show you how to get to a member if you want to email them, which is what you originally said.

The USSR thing was like a joke, hope you were not offended.
