Suggestions for Easier OB Navigation

[Dorothy]

Thank you Rosie!
Nothing like learning from each other ..
and now I know better also!
At least this thread helped in some capacity

I'm not sure this question would go in this thread ...

What about a searching tool that could show all the members growing one species ? (based on members's list)
To be more clear : I am looking for info on- i.e. Schoenorchis fragans- I would like to know all the members in OB who grow it, so I could send them a PM to ask specific questions (aside from creating a new post).
Is it possible ?

Yay, Rosie!!!

See? Even the mods get to learn stuff here

[RosieC]

No problem

I'm just a curious person and if there is an icon and I don't know what it does I hover over it to see the tooltip. I had seen this one and read the tooltip not long after I joined but I've never used it until I tried it earlier to see what happened. Glad I could help

What the OB provides is search option ..
Type in Schoenoorchis fragans into the dropdown field once you click on the Search option at the top of any page along the Forum Menu Taskbar .. It will bring up any past thread that mentions that orchid .. there you can find other members that have it ..
Your search can be more specific to a particular forum by going to that specific forum page.
Find the Search This Forum icon on the far right of the screen right across from Threads in Forum next to Forum Tools ..
Type in your keyword there ..

I don't believe there is a way that this forum can do what you are asking ..
Sue .. what do you think and know better than me on this one?

Dorothy....I'm not a newbie but I always need help because I'm orchidly challanged!!!!! And I applaud your never-ending efforts to make this the best place in town...err the internet to visit and stay awhile.

[Dorothy]

You are very welcome, Doc

But you know I couldn't do it without Sue's help!

I wonder if they sell special equipment for the orchidly-challenged ?

[BikerDoc5968]

Sorry, Sue, I didn't mean to leave you out...'cause you're pretty special, too! And, yes, I have found just the kind of stuff us challenged people require to get us from one day to the next. This is how I get around the GH....it makes it easier to see that all the chids are be cared for properly.

I didn't think your greenhouse was that big!
Cute, Doc ..

That's exactly how we would get around in the greenhouse of a seed company where I did an internship 2 years ago! This was a small greenhouse by Dutch standards but the main corridor was 500 meters long, so we would use bikes to get around. We had some pretty bad rush hour traffic!
