Of course, I cannot figure out how to do it. But I'm not sure I can come up with a clever title, anyway.
@Liz, Click 'Settings' then go to 'edit profile' on the left hand side. It'll pull up a bunch of different customizable things, and that's about halfway down in the list.
I can't figure it out either. I tried everything in 'settings' but clearly I'm missing some basic thing. Guess I'll look again. Or maybe I don't have enough posts? Hmm, perhaps reps is the problem. I need 2 more! Oh well.
Hmmm, Looks like my guess on 2 more rep points isn't the issue, you only have 2 rectangles. Under Optional Information, Custom User Title does not show up. OK, wait, my new guess is, I haven't been here long enough. I'm sorry I can't give you more reps for the help, Phoenix, until I spread more around.
Sometimes the nits do need to be picked, or else everything turns lousy. Thank you for being so darned good at it, and never stop!
As for the custom user title, moderators, supporters, and contributing members can. Senior members may be able to, I'm unsure, but everyone else doesn't have this option.
daniel... i just noticed that our happily returned wreybies has both a blue 'contributor' and green 'supporter' banner showing... so i'm wondering why the blue 'contributor' one that was showing under my avatar before i donated to the site disappeared when the 'supporter' one was added... not that it matters to me one way or another, it's just puzzling... [and just me living up to my self-awarded 'title'! ]
it does... thanks!... though i still don't know what qualified me for 'contributor' status, unless it's the stickies and the word-a-week feature i had to give up on, due to not having the time to do it on a regular basis... hugs, m
I think I mentioned it earlier in this thread, but to qualify for Contributor you need 500 posts, to be registered here for one year, and to have earned 200 rep points. In your case, you met all of this criteria long ago. That said, we do appreciate the stickies/word-a-week. Members who give back to the site by doing things like this may be awarded the Contributor tag before meeting the other criteria.
guess i missed that explanation... thanks for the reprise... wish i had time to do more... you're still the best on the web, dan'l!
