1) The URL to the page you are on when the bug occurred.takeonestepatatime.proboards.com/members?q=still2) What happened, in detail?Went to look up member still on the member search page, typed in her username "still" (matches her display name) and it only pulled up one name: stillhoping. I tried pulling up just names beginning with st and no still in that list either. Her profile shows up when I click on her posts. 3) If you received an error message, what did it say?No error message 4) What do you think should have happened instead?Member search should have brought up a link to member still 5) Can you reproduce this on every pageview?Yes. 6) What browser, version, and operating system are you using?Firefox 19.0.2, Windows 7 7) Please attach a screen shot (JPG or PNG -- not GIF or BMP) if it is relevant.NR

Got this in response from ProBoards staffer Michael Stone:

Still was not the only member missing from the list. I noticed the same thing with wynken1234, when wynken tried to log in & got that message that her username was not available. That happened long before wynken deleted the wynken1234 account. I tried it a couple of times.

But you know what's interesting? I just went to a post by wynken1234, who now appears as a guest, and saw the PM link below the footprint, so I selected that. And I get this:

I wonder if that means we can still send a PM to the deleted member? I will try and see what happens. 
Wow, it let me send the message. That certainly seems odd!

Sounds like it needs another ProBoards bug report, eagle. I'd do it, but I need to contact Greg over a chat room emergency.

I reported it at the PB Support forum. Should I also add it to the list of Bug reports at our Report Bugs board?

This (searching for still) still does not work. (no news on when it might be fixed)
For anyone who wants to be able to find still's posts, (at least until this is fixed) here is a temporary work-around:
You can follow still via her profile, and then from your own profile any time you want, you can choose still, go back to her profile & click on 'view this member's recent posts'.
Another option is to click on her username from the members online within the last 24 hours (as long as she remains visible - this won't work for members who choose 'invisible' on their profile). That will take you to her member profile & from there you can click on 'view this member's recent posts'.

Per Michael Stone at ProBoards Support,
"Have her change her display name, and then change it back. This will trigger an automatic re-index of all of the forums users. This occurs any time there is a change to the member list. Example: New member joins the forum, a display name is changed, a member is deleted, etc."
Still will be notified.

by the way, she doesn't show up on the beta site's SOS member search either.

Incidentally, I did try it out on the Beta test site and for some reason, it does not work to change this user's display name. I informed Michael. I don't know if Still cares or not, but so far she has not responded to my message, so we'll have to wait and see (both how still feels about it, and what Michael has to say.)

This is the latest information from Michael Stone at ProBoards Support: So the bug report is now closed. Until the stopwords are removed from user searches, anyone using a name that is a stopword will not be searchable, therefore to find our member still, please do as I suggested and add still to your Follow list. How to do that is quoted below: For anyone who wants to be able to find still's posts, (at least until this is fixed) here is a temporary work-around: You can follow still via her profile, and then from your own profile any time you want, you can choose still, go back to her profile & click on 'view this member's recent posts'.

This is the latest information from Michael Stone at ProBoards Support: Until this is fixed, would it work for Still to change her "display name" to Still. (with a period on the end)?
