Suggestion:Be able to search usernames without knowing the full one.

Question

So i was making a db users team [yes i got around to doing that without help] and wanted to include rotom but there was no rotom user when i searched rotom but if i could search the users list i could.

You could press ctrl+f to search each page of the users

There already is a search function, but it isn't really part of the site. Type site:pokemondb.net/pokebase/ user rotom (the space right before rotom is necessary) in google, and the search results will be narrowed down to only pages from that site, the site being the users list of the database. If there are results, they should be the first few that show up.

Here are two I found:
https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/user/Rotom
https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/user/-rotom

you can also replace the last bit of those links with anything and if someone has it as their username it'll take you to their page. https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/user/enterusernamehere

What failed? Do you want me to flag this so Pokemaster is more likely to see it? That's not what flags are for. Pokemaster will read it eventually and reply when he wants to. If you want a reply from him, you're going to have to be patient. And if you didn't like the answer why did you select it?

I actually unselected it cause when i googled what you told me it said there were no results so i unselected it. Also someone said something about flagging it for pokemaster on a different question.

Are you sure you typed it in correctly? I could try searching for it if you want to tell me what you were trying to find. The person that mentioned flagging was most likely saying that because the post broke the rules, which is what flags should be used for.

No he said it was such a good suggestion that he would flag it for people to see.

alright it appears I'm a big dum dum. You have to search "site:pokemondb.net/pokebase/ user rotom" not what I put before.
