Clicking on User's Name in Chatter Direct Messages Throws Error

[Nat Katin-Borland]

Clicking on the linked user's name on the List of conversations on the Direct Messages screen throws a "Not Found" screen. I assume that this is the case because it just hasn't been implemented yet, but I thought I would send in a ticket anyway.

It works correctly for me.

I agree with Carlos that this works when you are in the full-screen of direct messages. I tried on IE8 as well as FF.

Where it doesn't work is in the pushdown. I think this is by design...we don't want clickable links on people's names in the pushdown. However, we have it as an <a> with a pointer when you mouseover. Which makes it misleading.

Turns out there is a real issue here with chatter user names. We use the NotFound view for finding out if there link is to a user, which works fine in *debug* mode. In production, the debug flag is not set and then a different NotFound view overrides the chatter finder, to show the Karl error page. We'll need to fix this on the next iteration.

Works.
