Who knows. We can't see it. Or not see it. Maybe he's got Flash or something in there that others don't.

Check the usertextfield table and see if the signature of that particluar user is shown up there?

Whereas to show the signature of that user in posts, try the following and let me know if it will work.

Go to the phpmyadmin at the cp of your host, select the db name that your forum resides on and at the SQL box run this query:

UPDATE post SET showsignature = 1 WHERE userid = xxx;


If your db tables have a prefix, include it in the query and replace xxx with the actual uid of the user whose signature doesn''t show.

I have tried the exact same sig in my proifile and another members profile and it shows

But just not in his profile, i have not edited anything in his profile and other members in that usergoup have no problems with sigs

Did you check the usertextfield table and see if the signature of that particluar user is shown up there? What about the query I posted above, did you run it?

I understand your concern but there is really nothing to worry about. All you have to do is copy/paste the query I posted above and run it at teh SQL box in the phpmyadmin.

Doesn't 'showsignature' just control if that user sees other people's signatures anyway? There's no option to turn off your own signature I don't think (short of just leaving it blank).

I'd still like a link and a login so we can see it (or not see it). Have you tried setting it to something simple like "XYZ"?
