The input fields for entering player profiles by name have received an update with two new UI elements added. The first element is a clickable link to the player profile that the entered name represents. The second is a button for cycling through more suggestions with the prefix so far entered.

The player profile link () verifies that there is an existing player profile with this name (and includes its numeric player ID in small print). To double check that it is the correct player profile, you can click on the link and it will open the player profile page in a new window (to not interrupt your work on the current page). A missing link means that a new player profile with this name will be created.

The button lets you find more player profiles with the same prefix. To cycle backwards you can hold the Shift key when clicking the button. There are also keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+Space and Ctrl+Backspace for cycling forward and backward, respectively. Note that there is a limit on how many player profiles that are fetched for every prefix, so try to be fairly precise before you start searching for alternatives.

The suggestion algorithm is case insensitive and will allow alternative characters with or without diacritical marks, otherwise it is fairly strict and will only match names with the same prefix.

As always, please let me know if something doesn't seem to work as it should.
