Changing Profile Info

Changing Profile Info - stormin515

I'm having trouble editing my profile information. Every time I click on the "Edit Profile", I get pushed to the "Change Password" page.

Can anyone help?

I did the good Canadian thing and updated my profile to show my new email address. Huge mistake. That minor little correction locked me out of my account! I gave up sending messages to the great administrator in the sky and setup a new account using a new name. Thank you Yahoo.
 
Some claim they do. Maybe it has something to do with the way they are asked.

LOL you'll come up with ANY reason you can to blame me and other users instead of acknowledging the obvious that admins are too lazy to fix it. you think that they are going to and individually fixing each person's profile link when they ask nicely? and only the people who have done so have profiles that work? Give me a damn break man 😂😂😂 so many terds on this site

Your attitude pretty much explains why you don't get the best of service from others. I'm sure they will read your posts and just wag their little tails for the privilege to service your feeling of entitlement. :D
 
Have you tried sending a PM directly to Laurel or Manu? If not, you might try that.

Have you tried being quiet unless you can post something honest &/or helpful?! I for one have seen them act on things, even quickly sometimes, but not correctly.

No, I will not again send them a seemingly-pointless PM, though you may want to alert them to your PM...S(r71..."Right Now").
 
I have you on ignore, so haven't read that, but you might as well just stick to one alt sweetbubblegum/trumpire. You gave yourself away days ago. ;)

Then you also won't read this, but I'll post it anyway. I am not bubble, but you gave yourself away months ago as a "polidiot" & tonight as someone who can't keep their posts on-topic.

LOL so he thinks we are the same person and making posts to "ourselves"? lmao. what a fuckin terd. if he doesnt like what 2 people have to say, they MUST be the same person no matter how old their account is, right? Bahahaha. i could care less at this point if the lazy ass losers who run this site ever fix it. I have yet to meet a single person off of here who is in a complete moron anyway. site full of nothing but liars and creepers, with MODS to match. and this moron says that it MUST be because of my attitude, they've gone and individually fixed the link to everyone else's account but mine....because of my "attitude". that's complete psycho shit when somebody starts out calmly and all that you do is antagonize and poke them and then claim that their attitude is the issue. I had no attitude until I got attitude from the fucking creep on this thread who has nothing to say to anyone yet continues to post here. Nobody wants to see your creepy little thumbnails in your signature anymore. you have nothing to say so go blow your dad ya hillybilly :)

"we're working on it" damn thats a lot of work they must be doing to take months to fix something that takes seconds.

Trumpire turn your messages on. i wanna send you a photo hehe. you gotta see this worm 😂😂😂
 
I'm not sure why you're still on a site when you have so much anger regarding it. One would think - since you already understand 'it will never be fixed' - that you'd either accept it and enjoy what you can, or go to another site where you are happy.. where there are no creeps, liars, and morons. :rolleyes:
 
1. click "Edit Profile"
2. "Enter your present password to continue:"
3. I do it
4. press "Save Changes".
5. back to regular Control Panel page.


Oh well, at least I got my avatar.
 
The entire infrastructure of the site is being updated from older technology and frequently modded old code in order to accommodate modern features and meet mobile display requirements Google is implementing with relation to search ranking.

When you're tearing something down practically to the ground behind the scenes while still keeping the basic functionality of the whole site up and running, you have to make sacrifices. Every minute you spend fixing something that glitches out is a minute you're not moving forward with the full rebuild.

Taking the time to explain that is taking away time that could be used to work on the project as well.

And fixing something in software that's slated for upgrade to the latest version is even less time-effective. Upgrading to the current VBulletin is one of the stated goals of the site rebuild.

You don't replace the starter in a car to drive it to the junkyard.

My guess is that the linking fixes are being worked on with an eye toward the future. The current version of VBulletin isn't included in that future. They're probably making sure everything is going to work properly in the new version they're going to roll out. If they can solve the issue in the existing version in the meantime, that's all well and good, but it's probably not the priority, and should't be.

Remember, this is an enormous site with a massive database and around a million unique hits a day. Keeping the core site functioning ( which does not include the forum. It's irrelevant to the majority of visitors. ) is an absolute necessity.

last I checked it did not cost any of us one dime to use this site and it is add free.
check your fucking whining at the door.
yes there are lots of little glitches at the moment and these are annoying, but this is an old website and it does need to have things updated on the back end and this is what the administrators are trying to do without breaking everything and just making a whole clean slate do over.
grow up people.
 
I’ve noticed a bunch of updates were installed, but the profile issue is still in effect for me. 🤔
 
Okay, found the answer to the profile page issue.

Can't imagine that all the complaining makes the admin move any more quickly to do something about it either.
 
For those of us who are waiting.. anxiously. Why not do what i did?

Update the authors profile, then link it to this side?... in Your signature... that way people just click on a link and theres the info. Boom, done, then we can wait impatiently for them to actually fix the profile problem...
