How can I view a user's settings

Question

We know how to set up the information that will show up in a user's settings, but may we view the user's settings? We are interested on using the user's name to discover their subscriptions to forums and blogs.

Ah, I see. In that case you are looking at writing a customization to list subscriptions, using either core_v2_contentSubscription Script API or core_v2_applicationSubscription Script API . You'd also need to use the core_v2_widget.ExecuteFile method and specify the RunAsUserName parameter as the user in question.

You can directly view and change users' settings via Administration > Membership > Members > [select a member] > Edit. This does not include a listing of subscriptions, however. To view these things via the UI, you would need to Impersonate the user and view their settings page.
