User id

    How do you find out User ids? For example a user emails me an idea and I want to create a topic with their forum user name as author.

    I know about editing the topic in backend to set author but how do I find the id number?

    dashboard>users>all users and find the user using search.

    then click edit to edit the user.

    in the url at the top of the page you will see

    mysite.com/wp-admin/user-edit.php?user_id=1332&wp_http_referer=%2Fwp-admin%2Fusers.php

    1332 is the user id

    Thanks for that! I have also learned that when I edit the topic in the back-end I can start typing their username and it will select them/ their ID for me from the list.
