Title: Making account information public
Post by: Dhalgren on April 28, 2012, 05:39:58 PM

I cannot seem to find a way to make my personal information public.
Under the "edit data" option there is a "public info?" slot where the only option is yes - however my info still result to be private.

Is the option somewhere else? I cannot find it under "options"
 sorry for the super-newbie question.

That should be the right option. I think there is a bug report open about this. If not, please open one up.

You've actually found a bug in the Edit Data page.

Thanks for picking up on that.  I've fixed this, and the fix should go live some time within the next few days, when Tom next updates.

However, if I'm reading the code right, it looks like you ought to be able to make your information public simply by going to the Edit Data page and clicking "Update Data", since the "yes" option would be automatically selected.

If that does not work, then please wait until the revision number under the username & password boxes on the login page is at least 6127, and try again.

revision number is now 6127:6128M. I have now both the "yes" and "no" options but the data still remain private after selecting yes and update data.

i made a bug report but it is based on the last problem (not having "no" option). should i add a note to it?

Have you tried selecting "no" and update, then going to Yes and update again?

Adding notes to the bug on the bugtracker is the best way to resolve bugs. :)
