TimG Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Am I simply overlooking something? I can't find anywhere in my profile to put my real name. I can find fields for webpage, yahoo name, DOB, location...just about everything except actual name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 There is something called "custom member title". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finally17 Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 You could put it in your signature and have it autopost at the end of all your responses. Hmm...maybe I should do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even used the browser search function and it can't find "custom" either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwnn Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 I don't have that line! :blink: :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finally17 Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Hmmm...I don't have that line either. Perhaps it's something that's enabled after some number of posts made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimG Posted February 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 I can't quite make out what it says in your image, but that area of the screen says: Welcome to your control panelYour personal profile, this section is optionalYour Date of Birth Your website url Your ICQ UIN Your AOL identity Your Yahoo identity etc. when I make those two clicks.

Guest Jlall Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Oh wow, ok I added a custom tilte of "balla" and that replaced the standard ones... Guess some people don't have it. On most forums this kind of thing is controlled by the mods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finally17 Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Oh wow, ok I added a custom tilte of "balla" and that replaced the standard ones... Guess some people don't have it. On most forums this kind of thing is controlled by the mods. Since I don't know why they'd be manually editing people's permissions, and we already know that the title changes based on the # of posts you've made (your little hand under your name, which Justin has changed to balla), I'm laying odds it's just a change that happens when you've made a certain # of posts...if I had to guess from looking at the posts here, and who has this option and who doesn't, I'd say around 2500. This kind of "reward system" is not uncommon for web-forums. TimG--Click on the little picture Justin posted and it will open a new window/tab showing a larger, readable picture.

TimG Posted February 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 Never mind, got it working. (Something about turning images off, I clicked on the address, not the link, which somehow made a difference.) Anyway, just confirmed that I do not have the field option. My original point may have been lost in all of this: it would be nice to be able to put a real name in a user's profile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
