Many people criticize the Internet for its decentralization and lack of a separate structure. It is, in principle, impossible to regulate, but this is probably its main advantage. Nevertheless, individual elements of the Internet, from miniature niche sites to monstrous social networks, on the contrary, make every effort to make their structure as clear and easy to regulate as possible. Here you can start talking about databases, about complex identification numbers, but all this rests solely on the shoulders of the developers. Regular users are left with a minimum of ids, which are unique identifiers individuals, but even with millions of users they fully function and can be used by them. It’s worth figuring out how to find out the id of someone else’s page or group in Odnoklassniki; how to find a person on Odnoklassniki by id and what it is. Also check out the topic on Odnoklassniki.
So what is it?
ID is a set of numbers, which, in most cases, but not in Odnoklassniki, is serial number user. Here it is some other set determined by internal algorithms.
First way
There are several ways to find out your id or a friend’s profile in Odnoklassniki. On home page network click on your name. A page will open with a URL like this: https://ok.ru/profile/xxx, where xxx is your unique number.

There, going to the very bottom, you will immediately see where there are 2 mentions of your id. One, as part of a link to your classmates’ website, with which you are already familiar, the second is the number itself.
In a social network in the same settings, you can easily change the link to your profile by selecting any unique name consisting of Latin letters, which will come after ok.ru/ and enter it on your page, but even after that, it will remain with each user its unique id. 
If you are interested in how to change id in Odnoklassniki, there is a simple answer - it is impossible.
What about other users?

But this may not seem so simple if, for example, he changed the link to his profile, replacing numbers with a unique phrase. However, solving the problem is very simple, you just need to know the recipe. And also, knowing this unique name, you can easily find. 
So, where to find and view a friend’s profile ID on Odnoklassniki. You just need to click on the “Write a message” link under the person’s photo on his page. Depending on the browser in different places window will display a link to the expected page with the following content: ok.ru/messages/xxx, where xxx is this unique user id. 
What if I’m not on Odnoklassniki?

It is enough to enter as much of his data as possible, including name, age, address and write “Odnoklassniki”. Already in the search window you can use the link to find out the unique identification number.

The interface of the social network suggests completely abandoning proprietary information, however, if you fully use this social network, and it is for you important source information, it is better to immediately remember your id, so as not to encounter problems accessing your account in the future, and if there are any, quickly solve them with the help of the support service, which most often needs this unique number.
How to find out ID?
We find mutual acquaintances and records from five years ago.
VKontakte has more than 350 million registered users. Many people there have profiles filled with a lot of interesting and not so interesting information. Many life hacks have been found/invented for searching the service. The article talks about five of them.
1. How to find a page by email address or phone number?
This can be done with the number mobile phone, but for this you need to know the person’s last name. You can find out by sending a letter to his email (if he is not encrypted and has entered his data correctly).
2. How to find out a user’s hidden date of birth?
It happens that some people hide their dates of birth from guests/friends of the page (many ladies 25+ hide only the year), but they are still on the pages (during registration they indicated all their data and then hid it). In such cases, you can find out the year, month and day of birth of a person using a search.
We go to the search, indicate the first name, last name, city, university, etc., that is, all the data known to us, so that the person appears in the search results and there is a minimum extra people. In the “Additional” section, indicate your expected year of birth. If it is entered incorrectly, the person will disappear from the search results, and when you guess correctly, he will appear. Tested many times.
Similarly, you can select the month and day of birth, as well as Political Views, school, marital status and other information.
3. How can I see old posts on the wall?
Here's a small life hack that will help you learn more about the past of a new acquaintance. To read a person’s statuses set five years ago, you don’t have to tire yourself of scrolling through the feed. Everything is much simpler.
We go to the person’s page and at the beginning of the wall (microblog) click on the link “To Vasya’s posts”, then click on the link “Go to search” and indicate the desired date in the calendar that appears when you click on “Posts before a certain date”. This way you can find everything that was not deleted.
Many people registered there back in 2007-2009 and have changed a lot since then. Today the girl posts “the commandments of Vedic femininity” or “the rules of the Orthodox bride,” and seven years ago she posted the statuses “who stole my thong on the registration yesterday, please return it. You can anonymously."
This works for communities too.
4. How to find a chain of mutual acquaintances?
We test the theory of “six handshakes” (which, with the development of the Internet, becomes the theory of “four handshakes”). Open the application NOT random connections and indicate the id the right person. Until recently, you had to wait about five minutes for the chain to be built, but now it happens in a matter of seconds.
If you need to get to know someone living in your city/town with a population of several tens of thousands of people, then you most likely have a mutual friend who can introduce you. The application will help you find this person.
Many people instinctively trust friends of friends and try to please them at least a little (make a small discount, for example). Soviet law“I am from Tamara” and subconscious hatred of strangers, at least a little, influence everyone’s behavior.
5. How can I view the statistics of visits to my page?
Do you wonder how often people view and like your profile? It's very easy to find out. This is the case when they say: don’t have 100 rubles, but have 100 friends.
If you have less than 100 subscribers, then we delete a certain number of friends so that there are at least 101 subscribers. After this, at the very bottom of the page you will see a link to a page with statistics (in new version design just above), where views and likes of your page are visible by day and month. It's better to do this late at night so you have time to send remote people new invitations with explanations. However, for some this will just be a reason to finally clear their feed.
If you do not need to constantly display a link to statistics, then you can view it by simply pasting it into the address bar of your browser http://vk.com/stats?mid=+ your page id.
Information about people can be collected not only on VK, but also in thousands of other places. I have already written something on this topic.
After registering on a social network, an account is created. It stores personal data, photographs, videos, friends lists, correspondence. Each user is associated with an individual link - the address where the personal profile is stored. You go to your friends’ pages by first and last name, and to groups by name. There is no need to remember address lines, but knowing the location of your personal account is useful in special situations. Let's figure out what a link to a profile on Odnoklassniki is and why it is needed.
Following the link, the browser opens the desired page. All accounts in OK are associated with a line that looks like https://ok.ru/profile/425810415 or https://ok.ru/profile/username. The beginning of the line is the same for everyone, the default ending is a digital code that is assigned to the user upon registration.
If your line looks different, it means you are not in your profile, but in your feed or other section of the social network. Be sure to click on the last name to find the correct line, which begins at https://ok.ru/profile/. A link to your personal page can also be found in the settings section. On the main page, in the top menu, select “More” and “Settings” or under the photo “Change settings”. Among the basic personal data, the required line is written below:
Copy it and save it anywhere text document. The link to your profile will be useful in case your account is blocked or hacked by scammers. To restore access, the system will request personal data, including this link. If you are unable to access your profile, and the link to it is lost or was not saved, you can find the address with the help of friends in OK. Ask the person to visit your page, copy the address bar from the browser and send it to you.
Remembering a link with a digital code is not easy. But in Odnoklassniki it is possible to change the account address to something harmonious and easy to remember. The initial part will remain the same, but indicate the ending at your discretion, taking into account certain rules systems:
Carefully consider the new name of the page - you are allowed to change it once. Choose a succinct definition that will help promote the group faster and help people remember you.
How to change your profile link
Go to the settings section, hover your mouse over the link and click on the word “Change” that appears. Enter a new name in the pop-up window:
Click “Create” - your page will receive new address. Remember it and send it to your friends.
You must choose a unique name for your account. As you enter, the system displays hints that will help you form the correct link.
Pay attention to the “Creation Rules” - it contains brief instructions. May only be used letters and numbers, without indication brands and obscene words.

Today, repairs have become much easier and more enjoyable than several decades ago. Of course, they invented such a wonderful material as drywall. This finishing material has already firmly won its place as a leader in construction market and practically no repair can be done without it.
Drywall can be used in a variety of cases:
- wall covering;
- formation of complex hanging devices on the ceiling;
- creation of decorative and functional partitions;
- installation of columns, arches and niches in the house;
- Furniture assembly.
In addition, finishing with plasterboard will help you transform your apartment, making it unique and original. You can easily do all this with your own hands by reading step by step instructions in each specific case.
But there are situations when, after completing repairs, it is necessary to find a metal profile in a plasterboard wall or ceiling. The question is about “how can you find a profile under plasterboard sheets?” on this moment time remains very relevant. After completing the exterior finishing, there will be no seam left on the wall, not even a hint of installation work. Therefore, identifying the frame elements under the finishing material will be quite problematic. This article will reveal to you all the secrets of the correct search.
The need to find a metal profile under drywall may arise in various situations:
- when to hang a picture;
- if there is a need to install a mirror on the wall;
- when you need to hang a TV on the wall;
- installation of heavy wall cabinets or shelves;
- mounting a chandelier on the ceiling;
- installation of skirting boards that will be nailed to the frame elements.
In any of the above situations, it is necessary to find a metal profile under the drywall.
Understanding the frame
As you know, drywall can be installed in two ways:
- without frame. Used if the walls are perfectly smooth. The method is used for small areas of the room and slight inclination of the walls. Allows you to quickly install plasterboard sheets using an adhesive solution;
Installation without frame
- with the creation of a frame base.
Frame assembly
If you used the frameless method, then the question of searching for profiles disappears by itself, since metal fasteners were not used here at all.
Today they resort to installing a frame quite often, since our apartments often have, to put it mildly, uneven walls.
It should be noted that assembling the frame is also possible in two ways:
- using wooden slats;
- using metal profiles.
In apartments and houses, both materials can be used to create a frame structure of any complexity.
And at this stage all the fun begins, since the search methods will differ depending on what material was used: wood or metal.
Looking for metal
Magnet
The most common material for the manufacture of frame elements today is metal. Thanks to its strength, the mounted frame will be rigid and will be able to withstand the entire load that you plan for the walls or ceiling after covering them with plasterboard.
Metal profiles used to create frame structures can be different types. But since they are all made of metal, they can be found very easily. To do this, you need to use the old antiquated method, namely a magnet.
Since the profile is metal, it should attract a magnet even through a layer of drywall.
Note! Using a magnet will only give the desired result if the sheets used to cover the walls and ceiling were thin.
Using a magnet, you can easily find a rack or guide profile in a plasterboard wall, as well as the jumpers between them.
To find a metal profile in the wall you need:
- choose the location for future mounting of the picture/mirror/shelf/cabinet;
- take the magnet in your hands;
Note! It is best to use a large magnet that can cover a large radius of influence at a time.
A “triggered” magnet
This way, the desired wall element will be detected much faster than if you run a small magnet along the wall. In addition, it will be more convenient to hold in your hand and will not damage the surface of the walls. You should not use refrigerator magnets to search.
- hang a magnet on a thread. The length of the thread should be about 15 cm. You can do without thread;
- We slowly move along the intended search zone until a reaction occurs - the magnet stops moving along the wall.
In order to accurately determine the profile along the wall and not climb it every time with a magnet, use several magnets at once. In this situation, you can fix the location of the profiles using small magnets. Place them along the profile and you will never lose it again. You can do it even simpler - make subtle notes with a pencil.
Metal detector
After this, you can repeat similar actions and determine a second profile in the area of future actions. This should be done in a situation where you need to hang an LCD TV, cabinet or shelf on the wall.
If you need to hang a small-sized product (mirror, decorative shelf, picture, etc.), then there is no need to look for a second profile.
As you can see, in the situation with metal profiles, things are quite simple. Using a magnet, you will find a profile in just a couple of minutes.
Of course, you can use other search methods. For example, the search for metal profiles can be carried out using special equipment (technological method). Today there are special locators on sale (for example, a metal detector) that are configured to search for iron.
You can find data that some models can also search for a tree. However, the cost of such equipment makes this method unprofitable. It is unlikely that even the biggest fan of various technological gadgets will buy special equipment just to search for a profile. Why reinvent the wheel when there is a simpler, cheaper and easier way?
What if it's a tree?
Wooden frame
Despite the fact that wood is noticeably inferior in strength to metal profiles, it is still used as frame elements for finishing walls and ceilings with plasterboard sheets.
If this is exactly the situation you have, then searching for wooden slats under sheets of material can become a real headache. After all, driving a magnet here is simply useless.
However, if you use a powerful magnet, you can find wooden slats using the screws that were used to attach the plasterboard sheets to the wood. In such a situation, it is better to use a large magnet. When passing it over the screws, the magnet will stop a little.
In addition, in this situation there are several other ways to emerge victorious:
Note! Using engineering method you need to make calculations based on the fact that there are three profiles per sheet: one will be located in the middle, and the other two will be at the edges. Also, in order to accurately carry out all the calculations, you need to know which sheet was used: standard or non-standard. With a standard sheet everything is simple. We take its width and set it aside from the beginning of the walls. Where the sheet ends, there will be a rail. And for a non-standard sheet, you need to remember its width.
As we can see, using various methods, you can find frame elements under plasterboard sheets with relative ease. Using a magnet, you can easily find a metal profile, but other methods given in the article will help you cope with the search for a wooden frame. The main thing here is not to cut too lightly, and to carry out all the necessary calculations in order to accurately get to the desired wall element.

Not everyone knows that Facebook, unlike LinkedIn and most other social networks, allows you to search for people by email address. Just paste the address into the search bar, and Facebook will immediately point to the profile if it is linked to an email.
