Hello,

Error message when you open Users page from User page. _The requested URL or resource could not be found._

Repro:

1. Go to a user page [Discourse Meta - The Official Support Forum for Discourse](https://meta.discourse.org/my/summary)
2. Go to the hamburger menu and click Users

Edit: Same situation if you in a topic or a category.

Thank you! 🙂

Thanks for reporting that! From a user’s page, the failed request will look something like `https://meta.discourse.org/u/simon/directory-columns.json`.

The issue with a topic or category page is similar, for example, clicking the Users link from this topic makes a failed request to `https://meta.discourse.org/t/url-not-found-from-user-page-to-users-page/directory-columns.json`.
