Profile Privacy not displaying current settings

Planetinfinity · 23 June 2020, 07:36

Hello,

I tried to change my Profile Privacy Settings and it looks like that the settings are saved but when I switch to the setting again the options are back to "Everyone".

Is this on purpose ?

Your settings are saved, but the "Privacy Settings" does not fetch the current settings for its display.

You can test that by changing some settings (for example, "Friends" to "Registered members") and check your profile in a browser you don't usually use (so you wont' be logged in as a member). You will not see the "Friends" panel. Then change the settings to "Everyone" and refresh the other browser, then Friends panel should appear.

The thread could be turned into a request to have the current settings to be displayed though. Please post if that is what you want and I will move the thread to the correct sub-forum so that RCK can check if it doable.

It is exactly what i would like to see.

BTW is that the correct way/thread to report an issue with the forum ?
