Private messages - user not auto-filled in

If I go to someone’s profile, and I click on the “Private message” button, then I write the message and hit send, it errors out because I haven’t set a person to send it to.

I think it’s safe to assume that when in someone’s profile, one clicks the Private Message button, that the intention is to send the message to that person - so their name should be automatically filled in, no?

Thanks, --Mitch

heh, yeah… the first time i PM’d someone, i thought they blocked me or something since it wouldn’t let me send them a message…
took me a minute to figure out i also had to assign the person as the sendee…
should be automatic

I can’t reproduce that at meta.discourse.org ? How exactly are you
initiating the PM, can you describe it step by step?

same ‘problem’ from a user’s profile page.

Sorry about that, fixed now.
