AI Thread Summary
The "Find all content by" feature is currently experiencing issues, resulting in empty results for some user profiles while others display content. The problem is linked to the ongoing rebuilding of the search index after recent reconfigurations. As the process is approximately 75% complete, improvements have been noted, with many users now able to see their content. Users are encouraged to check back periodically for updates. Overall, the situation is improving as the index rebuild progresses.

Something is broken with "find all content by".

If I go to some people's pages, e.g. https://www.physicsforums.com/members/hutchphd.635497/ go to "Find" and "Find all content by", it is empty. Other people, like @Greg Bernhardt have messages show there.

I do not know what makes this happen sometimes and sometimes not.

Bad timing, I'm rebuilding the search index after some reconfiguration. It's about 75% done :)

Thread 'Thank you to mentors, advisors and members'

I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...

Thread 'Site Usability nitpick -- Hyperlinks should be underlined'

This came up in my job today (UXP). Never thought to raise it here on PF till now. Hyperlinks really should be underlined at all times. PF only underlines them when they are rolled over. Colour alone (especially dark blue/purple) makes it difficult to spot a hyperlink in a large block of text (or even a small one). Not everyone can see perfectly. Even if they don't suffer from colour deficiency, not everyone has the visual acuity to distinguish two very close shades of text. Hover actions...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
