Talking Hillbillies and Site Problems

Ok, tried to log in this morning and got a vBulletin "love note" stating I had "missing information in my profile", and that I needed to update the information in my profile...?

So...for S & G's I hit the "new post" button like I always do, and SSSD..."missing information in your profile. Please update your profile information..."

So, I try to go to the User CP to correct it.
I click on the UserCP and get: "you have missing information in your profile..."

Couldn't get to the board because of the profile, couldn't get to the profile to fix it, because of the board????

While I'm waiting for a call back from someoneI get a call from one of our members regarding the problem.

Here's the fix:

You have to run your curser across the message until it hits the part that you click on to take you to the profile!

*(Hint)* It'd be nice if it were underlined or highlighted for us technologically challenged types

It only took a damned Hillbilly from the Carolinas to help me figure out how to get back here!

Thanks Jesse!!

PS- Not sure why I'm writing this other than humor?
If you're reading it, you probably already got it figured out

Too much light out here...
......I'm going back to my cave......

Thanks Shadow, I had the same message and it took me a while to figure it out. It needs a better direction on to properly filling what's needed. Darth Johnson.
P.S. I like the name on your signature.

Had the same issue. I clicked on "private messages" underneath the banner up top below where it says "welcome so and so". That took me to the pm page and on the left is a link that says "edit your details". Click on that and it takes you to the page that allows you to enter the "required" info. I'm sure there are a number of ways to do it but that one worked for me.

Sorry guys! Did some changes in the admin section for profile fields and apparently there were unintended consequences. Hopefully I've got them straightened out now.

The FULL NAME field will only be required during new registrations and during profile edits. If anyone doesn't care to provide that information, simply put "N/A" there. At this point it is really only relevant to those who wish to post in the Board of Inquiry forum.

Hmmm, I didn't have any problems logging in this morning. I do like your sig though. How about testing it and seeing if you can post in the BOI? What if I signed up and said my name was Bubba Smith? Could I then post in the BOI? No sir, I'm not trying to stir the sh-t. Just curious.
