    Same here. I get "user not found".

    Actually, if you click on the little gear icon, it works. But the popup on the profile page doesn't work.

    I’ll reach out to Vanilla to see what the issue is. They’ve been particularly unresponsive lately, which has been frustrating.

    Just going to hijack this thread rather than starting a new one, if that’s okay...

    Are we ever going to have the ability to add information to our profile (a bio, links, etc.)? I assume it’s not possible right now, but maybe I’m missing something. Also, I’m guessing that has been discussed a lot already somewhere, but my quick search didn’t turn up much.

    This seems like table stakes these days. I assume if it were easier it would have been added by now. What’s the story?

    You have that ability today! I didn’t notice that that feature had been added by Vanilla [Thanks Stephen].

    If you go to your profile, select the dropdown menu in the upper right, you can edit your profile to add a host of information.

    [EDIT]
    There is also a section for real names within the profile information; if you’re using or would like to use an alias—but would still like to be identifiable—this would work well for that.

    Ah, thanks! For some reason I didn’t catch that there were more options on the “Edit Profile Fields” page. That is, I didn’t look carefully enough, and only took that the options on the left were more “account settings” and not more fields for profile info.

    Not your fault. It was hidden in the admin. Just had to be switched on.
