How can we use the manual administration of points feature without knowing a user's ID? In version 4.6, the user ID (uid) appeared in administer >> users. The ID number is no longer shown in newer versions. Apparently, it was considered by some to be a bug and that column was removed from the user list.

Attached is the way the user list is shown now - the user ID column used to be to the left of the user name. And a view of the userpoints add screen where it asks for the user ID.

Unless you are using pathauto for user aliases, you can just mouse over the user, and it will have /user/UID. Use that UID.

Another option is we include an Ajax user lookup by name, but I don't have the time to do that now.

Anyone who cooks up a working and tested patch for that is welcome to submit it and I will include it.

Bump this to HEAD. Patch attached:

1. Point management by username using autocomplete, instead of uid.

2. For easier management, on each user's profile page, the userpoints now is a link pointing to 'admin/user/userpoints/add/$uid'.
