Signature feature
-
Is the signature feature removed now? I can't find it anywhere in settings or my profile. Checked all other tabs and even when creating a new post I don't see this option. It was a nice field to have with every interaction I made on the forum.
Edit: I’m no longer following this topic. If you are a few points away please @ me and I’ll try to up vote an appropriate post(s) you’ve made. You can also politely request/message a MOD to have them change your signature to whatever you’d like while you obtain points.

Click your avatar icon and select edit profile - the signature box is at the bottom

@johnpoz This is all I see under this location.
This happens on multiple browsers/devices, with cache cleared and no ad blocking enabled. -
hmmm that is not what I see..
And when I click to edit your profile now that I am mod.. I see your birthday, and about you is blank and you signature is there..
I am new to the mod thing.. So lets call in @ivor and maybe he can help us figure this out.
As a quick fix I could edit your signature for you.. Did you white out your full and name and birthday in your screenshot since those are there as well but your not showing them.
What do you want in your signature other than what you currently have?
I wonder if its a theme issue.. When change to your theme darkly it shows up on my profile and if I try and edit your profile. So don't think its theme related.. Are you running any sort of script blockers?

Same here for me can not edit signature? Changing to Darkly did not make the signature accessible.

We will check and see what's going on. Thanks for bringing this up.

Just checked, accounts need reputation of 5 in order to have signature. Click on your profile name to see your reputation.

Ah so that might of changed from old software compared to the new stuff. Which is why you have sig now but can not update/change it.
wanting to flex my new mod super powers ;) Just send me a PM/Chat with what you want your signature to be and can fix that up for you.. As long as not something not kosher ;) Until you get enough rep points.. Since you seem to have sig from before, or I can just remove what is there, etc.

I guess I'll have to rack this up then, thank you for looking into this!

I guess we can park this for now as not much has changed aside from me using 2.4.1 pfSense. If I need to update in the future I'll shoot you a message and appreciate the help!

Thanks you should have reached the line of 5 points

I set this to 5 recently along with a few other fields to cut down on spammers who would sign up and immediately fill the signature, "about me" and website fields with spam links.
We still get some spammers but their profiles are much less polluted with ads.
That said, we do need to build a bit more culture around upvoting here. People are not used to using it and the button can be easy to overlook. But we also need to avoid being so into it that it loses all meaning... ("D00d, don't forget to smash that button!" on every post/sig)
Go forth and spread love, advice, and updoots.

@jimp Thanks for the explanation, it seems a logical step, to keep spammers out.

I noticed my signature needed an update and saw no option to make an update. Like my signature ended up in the /dev/null black hole. A web search landed me here. I am at a 4 rating now. Can a mod please fix my settings so I can update? I want to update my signature to indicate I am on the pfSense2.4.5 Development release. Thank you.
