Can I get one complete list of users?
Is there an easy way to get/print a list of the users of a wiki? I have 335 so there are 13 pages of them.

Inappropriate?Hi JD,
I'm sorry, you'll have to copy and paste or take screen shots. We do have plans to improve user management. I don't have anything concrete to tell you other than that.

Inappropriate?Clif,
I don't agree with your answer... you can use the API to get all user info and then parse out what you need.
Visit https://[YOUR WIKI NAME].pbwiki.com/api_v2/#GetUsersInfos and take a look.
Granted, I use this to just parse out the e-mail addresses using a script... but it should be simple enough to create something that parses out "name":"There Name Here". And figure it out once and you'll never have to take screen shots again.
Which brings me to a surprising complaint... Why is PBWiki so SSSSLLLLOOOOWWWW to bring functionality like this to the mainstream user? It is a shame everyone can't get their user e-mail addresses at the click of a button! I shouldn't have to use the API and run it through a website.
Is it me or is PBWiki very slow in making small improvements?
I’m sad

Inappropriate?Thanks for the info about the API. It's a very powerful feature set, but not something I typically recommend for the average wiki user.
I don't feel that we are slow to bring features. I feel that we are cautious. Adding new features can often break the system and we do extensive testing. We also have a large TO-DO list of features and although you may see our adoption of a single feature as slow, we are usually working on other things that we believe are more important.
I really appreciate your comments. It's nice to hear how you feel about us.

Inappropriate?Clif,
I understand when you're talking about backend stuff, but this is the simple case of adding some javascript functionality that uses the API - it's a one-way process that couldn't POSSIBLY break the system.
I don't really understand the security implications of the API, so maybe that's why you're cautious to recommend tapping into it. But really, for me, the bottom line here is this: the API can access the information so it should be available for all.
Thanks for the quick response and I, too, appreciate the dialogue!
