Browser Workaround for quickly viewing a user's feedback profile page.

Since it now takes multiple clicks to reach a user's actual feedback profile page I am reposting the workaround I came up with in 2021:

 

For medium to advanced level computers users of Chrome, Opera, Vivaldi and possibly other Chrome based web browsers: 

 

You can create a custom search engine that points to ebay's 'Find Member' search page.

Feedback Forum: Find Member 

 

Once you have created a custom search engine you can select/highlight the username, right click and "search with" your custom search engine. That will take you directly to their feedback profile page.

 

Creating a custom search engine:

In some browsers it's as simple as right clicking on a search box and clicking "add as a search engine."

I have done this on several desktop browsers. I haven't tried with mobile versions. You can google for help with your particular browser.

 

More fun with custom search engines for ebay and internet shopping:

 

It's possible to create custom search engines that point to ebay searches.

'Search with ebay' is a handy thing to have or create one for a more specific ebay search:

For example I created one to search for DVDs in the category of "DVD & Bluray discs", lowest price first. When I see the title of a movie online I can select the title, right click and search with my custom engine to see if it's available for a good price on ebay.  In some browsers it's as easy as doing an ebay search, right clicking in that search box and clicking "add as a search engine."

 

I also have a few custom search engines for other sites where I shop. However some sites block the browser's ability to create custom search engines.

Interesting message from someone who appears to have made their own feedback private.
