A uniform resource locator (abbreviated URL ; also known as a Web address , particularly when used with HTTP) is a specific character string that constitutes a reference to a resource Most web browsers display the URL of a web page above the page in an address bar . A typical URL might look like: http://www.example.org/wiki/Main_Page

Source: Wikipedia

Basically, the web address.

When Randomex says:

Newbies, remember to replace spaces in names with a dash [-] in

the profile URL – otherwise, you’ll just get an error page.

he is referring to:

If you click on “catch yourself” or “dunno what name”‘s, you will get:

bbPress – Error

User not found.

Back to YWN Coffee Room.

and the URL will be:

catch yourself:

http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/profile/catch%20yourself

dunno what name:

http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/profile/dunno%20what%20name

Notice the “%20” instead of spaces in the username.

catch yourself:

http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/profile/catch-yourself

dunno what name:

http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/profile/dunno-what-name

and now it will give you the correct page.

To go to any member’s profile page, change “catch-yourself” or dunno-what-name” to a different username. For example, my profile is:

http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/profile/sayididit

Anything else?
