Hook 3,021 Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 This is really trivial and more to other posters here, not worth the time of the f(x) Tech folks. I notice some folks have avatar pics on their posts while I have just the faceless default. I'd love to add a simple pic, just for some personality, but I can't find any control to do so. Is this no longer an option or did I miss the control for it? TIA Quote Link to post Share on other sites

netman 1,424 Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 User This link should help. Unless he is like me and the option simply doesn't show up for his account... The forum is somewhat quirky. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not a big deal. ;-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Parhelion 114 Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 user -> settings (the gear symbol at the right of the name) -> Edit Profile -> click right into the circle where the avatar is to show up At least that's how I got there. Iwonder if the issue with individual account options will be solved. On the other hand, probably less important than getting the phone ready. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
netman 1,424 Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 I discussed before how this option does not show up for me here: https://www.fxtec.com/forums/topic/change-username/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EskeRahn 5,460 Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 I discussed before how this option does not show up for me here: https://www.fxtec.com/forums/topic/change-username/ The link "Edit Profile" on mine is pointing to, looks like this (almost) https://www.fxtec.com/user/?profiletab=main&um_action=edit If I execute that link I get the edit. Could one of you with the issue, please try? ADD: This reduced version seem to also work (for me) https://www.fxtec.com/user/?um_action=edit Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Could one of you with the issue, please try? Clicking this link, I get the "Home/User" page, the "&um_action=edit" simply disappears from the URL. It's the page I earlier posted a screenshot of where the "edit profile" is supposed to appear: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hook 3,021 Posted June 2, 2019 Author Share Posted June 2, 2019 Same as netman here. But thanks for trying. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had (optimistically) hoped that it was just the menu item that under some unknown circumstances were missing, but must be worse than that then. Hmm, :-/ Maybe different 'create-paths' of the user create the profile with different rights to their own profile?? Let us hope some more knowledgeable person knows what is going on and can fix it..

Let us hope some more knowledgeable person knows what is going on and can fix it.. For me, it seems the link works... at least if I click on the avatar (which also has a camera icon), I have an option of "Upload photo". If I click on it, I have an option to upload one. Browser is Vivaldi on a PC (so it is Chromium engine). Maybe the link is not working from another browser or another platform (like a phone running Android). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hook 3,021 Posted June 3, 2019 Author Share Posted June 3, 2019 https://www.fxtec.com/user/?um_action=edit I didn't think it would be browser dependent, but just to be sure I installed Vivaldi. No difference. But thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Waxberry 638 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Our technical team will look into this and come back. Sorry for the inconveniences... ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cube48 51 Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Hmm ... I can't Edit profile too, no photo icon to add avatar. Tried a few different browsers but no dice. Seems our accounts are missing some flags in rights department. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
