Direct Links to Sub-Pages
Some system pages like account:you, user:info, or admin:manage provide several “sub-pages”, to which you can navigate by clicking the provided links in the side bar. But it is less obvious if and how you could — via a URL — directly link to those “sub-pages”.
The below tables give an overview of direct URL links to “sub-pages” of
- My account (account:you),
- User Profile (user:info/user-name), and
- Site manager (admin:manage).

- To find a user's ID for use with “Private messages, Compose new” go to the user's profile page http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/user-name (to find a user's name you might e. g. search for it), check the “Write PM” link's URL on this profile, and note the trailing number of this URL.
For e. g. http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/dummy you'd find the number 45996.
- To find a message ID go to My account, Notifications, check any messages' “Subject:” URL, and note the trailing number of this URL.
- How to find a notification ID needs to be documented
User Profile (user:info/user-name)
No direct URL links are known for
- Profile

Included page "include:signature" does not exist (create it now)






Very useful !
Thanks Eric.
These account page links are broken now, due to the Dashboard update.
I'm particularly interested in a shortcut link directly to the "Wikidot API" page (visible to all Pro users & any free user that has specifically requested a key, invisible for everyone else). Does anyone know how to check if such a link exists?
