Expedite Help for Members with StartUp problems.

As we [unfortunately] many times read, members come aboard and somehow succeed not to follow the simple manual to the letter, then come to the boards to say they're seeing no results on My Contribution, come to tell nothing is changing [example ] or come to tell they've received a mail from WCG to tell they have not contributed [at all]. One of the quick-checks helping members perform is see what's up with the stats on Members Comparison [a gruesome path to navigate to]. What is proposed is a small addition to the member info page that's part of the forum at e.g. https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewmember?member=SekeRob where mid top there's a link 'Find all posts by this member'. Insert immediately below this one a link that says: 'Show member contributions', which jumps to the members summary page [without the comparison elements ideally, but not necessary to work over the web page]. This page.

30 minutes of dev time, hours and hours of volunteer support [and helping new members to find their own base stats info].

Thanks for this suggestion Rob. I've added it to the list...

Lists are nice as reminders. It's what you decide is worth doing as low hanging fruit... scoring. Fruit not harvested falls to the ground and rots ;0)
