When my site was running vB3.x.x if I'd click on a user's name, it would bring up their profile and there was an edit user profile option in the selections. That doesn't seem to be the case with vB4.x.x

Is there something I'm missing in settings in the AdminCP?

You should see a "pencil" icon that will link to the user's profile in the AdminCP, where you can make changes to the user's profile:

Aha! It's still there, just with a different look.

Thank you.

By the way - your forum is quite interesting. I'll be bookmarking it.

Thank you! I think we have the best math help site out there. :cool:

I should point out though that I am not the owner of MHB (that's Jameson). I joined there shortly after it began and was really impressed with the active administrators and attention to user feedback (you don't find that often, at least in the math help forums). So, I wormedworked my way up through the ranks until I was invited to join the administration team.

At that point, I began a self-taught course of web coding and have taken on the role of the site coder. This site (vBorg) has been an invaluable resource for my informal education. :up:

Funny how that works. The site I now own was sort of dumped on me after I'd been given admin privileges. The owner decided he was done with it and said "It's yours."

It's been a fun venture and yes, this forum has been invaluable.

I'm at the point of knowing just enough to be extremely dangerous to the site, but not knowing enough to fix the danger that I possess. LOL.

Learning the back side of the site, server stuff and such, has been a challenge too.
