Ok so apparently I cannot see my persons username, nor can the person who got me see my username when it's directly on my profile.

Has something changed on elfster where we cannot see a users profile? All I'm allowed to do is view my persons wishlist.

Kind of makes elfster useless now if we cannot view a profile to see a users R2R name.

I have sort of figured a way round to finding their user name.

In the url after clicking on their name remove everything after and including /wishlist
Great workaround! Would have never thought of that, but it does work.

Okay I think I’m dumb. What URL? I’m not seeing anything in the app

go through the website


you can log in and see your gift exchange stuff and your secret santa’s real name which directly links you to their wishlist.

Then you just gotta sift through that url for the part that says /wishlist/and delete it and the stuff afterwards and it should take you to their profile.

Fascinating. Had to use chrome browser. Wouldn’t work in Safari. But it works. Thanks for the help!

Awesome job on the workaround!!! If anyone still has issues, just reach out. This is precisely why I ask you all to PM me to start with. I am able to match accounts here with the ones on Elfster, so if you need help, I'm glad to do so!
