Search by content?

Is it possible to search user contributions by content? For example, I'd to find my edits containing the word "merge", where I have inserted the template:merge. Thanks! fgnievinski (talk) 00:05, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Page hangs with IPv6 range + date range

Searching for e.g. 2603:8001:9442:6D00::/64 works fine, but searching for the range between 2021-07-10 and 2021-07-13 hangs. Searching Talk instead of all namespaces doesn't help. Yappy2bhere (talk) 19:33, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Users contributions on mobile

(not AMC) users contributions on mobile has been changed, is there anyone noticed that? The users contributions style on mobile is now the same as the users contributions style in Advance mobile. How to change it? —Ctrlwiki (talk) 00:59, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ctrlwiki: Enable and then disable Advanced mode. PrimeHunter (talk) 02:01, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

it didn't work. I want the old one, it's style is simple. —Ctrlwiki (talk) 03:11, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently it was removed deliberately. See Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)#The style of Special:Contributions on mobile version has been changed. Nardog (talk) 03:40, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It should be easier to find. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.34.234.175 (talk) 00:02, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Info on accessing user contributions is incorrect as far as I can tell

The current article says: "* Another registered user's contributions page. To access the contributions of a logged-in user (named account), go to the user page (e.g., User:Example) and click on the User contributions link listed under the Tools menu on the right-hand side of the screen. This works even if the user page has not been created yet (i.e., an edit box displays)."

However, for me on a windows PC at least, the tools menu appears on the left hand side. Can someone fix this? I cannot since this is locked. 162.154.240.33 (talk) 10:54, 23 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
