Send Message Member List December 12, 2020, 05:57:36 pm I haven't found this posted anywhere, and I haven't found the feature if it's already incorporated (which is surprising if it's not since it seems so obvious to have), so here goes..When starting a new message [My Messages --> Send a Message] having a member list "pop-up" to select from would be very handy.For Moderators, having a "send-to-all" feature would be sweet as well.

While I don't have a lot of users in the forum yet, I can see trying to remember the username if I have a hundred or more being a bit problematic (I'm getting old and my brain is full - if I learn something new I suspect it overwrites something I used to know - which begs the question how would I know? - and names seem to be the most vulnerable.). I can continue to open the member list if necessary, I suppose.Since I'm wishing, I was thinking a member list with check-boxes would be ideal - select the members from the list you want to send a message to.Barring that, a global member-message option, however, would be very useful.
