Unable to edit About Me section in Profile?

Post by RenYnde »

I've been looking forever and can't seem to find the section where I can edit my About Me area in my Profile.

I think someone else asked about this recently and the answer was that it's one of the things still being worked on after the reboot.

Edited to add it's the last post on the next to last page of the FAQ post.

I have no phobias or disliked critters. Feel free to click anything in my keep, except the "Quests" tab. I think you'll find plenty there without those 2 or 3.

It should be possible, considering I changed mine the other day to what it is now.

Wierd I just tried to update my Avatar and the site won't let me. I swear I have been experiencing a lot of bugs on my side of things and I'm wondering if its because of Firefox browser.

Edit: UPDATE: Yup it's Firefox browser....things show up differently prolly due to the site update but I found that it was hidden in a drop down menu that I had missed and so finally was able to update my avatar....something is also missing compared to before, there isn't a field to place any image links from
images hosted within magistream nor any outside sources. You can only upload images that you have saved from your computer.

I use Firefox and never had a problem, but maybe FF has been updated since I changed my avatar and created a problem.

I'm thinking that a lot of things related to customization of the site are still broken, because obviously the team is concentrating on the functional parts first. I'm sure that we can all agree that fixing the moving of creatures, trading, broken quests, etc are all higher priority than features that enable personal expression.

True, but it is always good to know if something is a known issue or not.

I was about to ask this myself, as I keep my wishlist on my 'About Me' page. I wanted to update it since I got some items as gifts. Not a major issue, no. But I would have asked just for clarification.

It is on the FAQ forum and on the list of things broken by the reboot.

I was making a general comment on why some things are still broken while others have been fixed.
