Profile Setting Changes not saving (solved)

Post by mountainLight »

Sorry if this was already posted. I searched around but couldn't find anything about this. When i go to my profile and attempt to update things like my location, pretty much anything and hit save i get a blank screen.

I tried entering my password to see if that was the issue but I still get a blank screen. No rush on this, maybe I am doing something wrong. I can still post and all that works, I just can't fill in more info about myself.

Thanks

Yeah, I ran across that problem the other day. I think it has something to do with a modification I installed in an attempt to prevent SPAM registrations. I'm searching for a fix, but it might take some time. For now we're just going to have to do without.

Sorry for the trouble.

Ah, that must explain the fact that recently when I look in a mirror sideways I don't see anything; my profile is messed up. Gee, I hope it gets fixed soon, people might think I'm a demon! :paranoid:

Problem solved.

For anyone wanting to update your profile, things should work now. Additionally, a place to enter a personal website URL has been re-added to the area where you update your profile. This feature is not available to anyone upon initial registration and is only accessible after logging in the first time and going to the profile update page.

We've been having a lot of problems with SPAM, so be aware that all URLs/users that/who appear to be SPAM will be deleted immediately!
