PM improvement

Names now autosuggest like the section system. No need to go find somebodies profile to PM them now. Have fun.
yay, now make it auto-suggest subject and content too~

Seriously though, this is pretty neat. Thanks for all the work you're doing!


 
May be minor, but it's still pretty cool.

Although I'll make a suggestion: When writing a user's name on the empty space it would be nice to see only the active members, and for those who aren't inactive and suddenly come back from the dead, then add their name on the active people list.
Never had too much trouble with that stuff, but that's pretty practical, so thanks!

One thing I've been expecting in PMs though would be the ability to disable the post layout... I used to miss that a lot back when people requested me layouts personally and I sent them over their way via PMs. I don't need that myself as much as I did in the past anymore, but that might be a cool addition. If that's not too hard, of course. :>

Also you've been doing a lot of fancy stuff for the site lately, so good job!
It's easily the best thing I've done
So why the empty numb?
Agreeing with both posts above me. Those will come in handy, especially the first one, because who would want to send a PM to an inactive user? If someone ever needs to do that, then a little check box can be added, kinda how this works.
Its not a bad idea but I internally based it on the same system as the author suggestion system in the sections system. So changes to one hurts the other. Maybe in the future I will decouple the code.

I'll look into layout disabling, but its lower priority for now.
Yet another great update brought to you by p4+2
On that matter, you think it would be possible to re-enable the option to disable the layout when sending stuff?
I used to use PMs to test layouts or send them to people who requested them, but I can't really do that anymore as I can't disable my own layout... why was that option even removed?

Maybe also exclude permabanned users, since most of them are unlikely to get unbanned?

Anyway, I've already seen it in action. Shit is getting done.

Sorting by postcount or the activity flag sounds like the best balance between effort and usability to me.

In general seeing these small functionality improvements to the site as of late (collapsible menus also springs to mind) has been fantastic. Keep up the good work.
