Title: Updating profile?
Post by: MR on 31 October, 2021, 01:15:17 AM
Just tried to add a 'signature' and date of birth to Profile. It accepted the signature and told me I'd updated my date of birth - but when I went back to check it was still 0001-01-01.  We're all getting older, but I'll bet none of us is THAT old!!!  ;D ;D ;D

And now I'm removing the 'signature' because it's very small and way below the message so had to look around before I noticed it.  But it was the same as my username (MR), which is bigger and in colour, so no signature necessary.  I also just found the "message icon" and finally realise how Terry got that different icon next to his post, so I've added a "cheesy" icon to this one and will now post this message to see what happens...

Nah, that didn't work!  Now I'll try adding the 'thumbs up' message icon that Terry and Pam have against one each of their posts.  ;D

That didn't work either - because I've lost the "message icon" tag!  Will have to make some spare time to play with all the different icons and stuff - it's frustrating, but also fascinating in a weird sorta way!  :o

How and where do I update my profile?  I suppose that I should own up to being the age I am! :'(

I sat here thinking, I just answered that question for Martin, how come Pam didn't see it. Hands up all those said you did it in an email :-\ :-\

So

Login
Mouse-over Profile Click Forum Profile
Mouse-over Modify Profile
Then select from the drop-down list
Go from there
Finally Click Change Profile (bottom left)

Date of Birth is a 'known Problem' - see 'Logging in comments' thread

Yes, it was in an email, Lee (maybe even two!) - I remember because some of it was in red typeface!
