505028 - No quick way to access profile after making changes to it.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 520656

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Public Pages, enhancement)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.1) Gecko/20090715 Firefox/3.5.1

Currently if one wanted to view his/her profile, they'd have to hunt down one of their reviews or add-ons.  So I'm suggesting a button be placed somewhere in User Account Editing that allows users to jump to their profile to view it like how other people see it.

Reproducible: Always

Sounds good.

Whoever implements this: Keep in mind that changes may not show up immediately due to caching. Maybe appending ?omg={timestamp user.modified} could remedy this problem.

I'm just checking in to see if this bug may be considered for a future AMO update.  I know this bug is a trivial enhancement request, but would creating a mockup help speed things up to making this happen?

bug 520656 would fix this bug, I'm tempted to mark it duplicate even though it's not precisely identical.

Comment 4

[Ngamer01]

The bugs may have been filed for different reasons, but Bug 520656 would grant what I'm looking for (some way to let me see my profile without having to hunt down one of my reviews and/or add-ons first).

So go ahead and mark this as a dupe of Bug 520656 and I'll follow the status in the other bug.

OK, done. We can always re-evaluate depending on what happens with the tested changes in Bug 520656.
