+Lil Devil Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 After changing your signature, you have to click on the "forums" link on the left-side of the page on the main site. This will transfer the info to the forums site.
+Sevilon Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 I've been having the same problem for days now. I tried the above advice, and have tried advice given by others, and nothing seems to work.
+Lil Devil Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 Worked for me just now. I added a link to one of my bookmark lists, clicked the forums link, then refreshed this thread and the new link appeared on my previous post. Just like Christmas in August
+Lil Devil Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 One other thought: you are entering your password on the Edit Profile page when editing your sig, right?
+Sevilon Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 I have tried entering my password to update my sig. in profile, and then clicking on the forums link on the left; logging out and then logging back in; entering password to update new sig, logging out and then logging back in AND clicking on the "forums" link on the left; and someone said you had to click on the "discuss geocaching" link on Geocaching.com WHILE logged in to your forum profile. I couldn't find the exact link, I don't think, but I did do what I could find, clicking on the "General Geocaching Discussions" link while logged into my forum profile. I have also tried just about every combination of the above listed advice, and used the "testing" forum repeatedly to no avail. It's not the end of the world if I can't get a sig. going, but I wish I could figure out what it is I am doing wrong.

+cachew nut Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 (edited) Nevermind, I see you got it working. Edited August 12, 2006 by cachew nut
+Sevilon Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 Noooo!! I was halfway through your instructions, Cachew (deleted cookies), and came back to see it was all gone! I know I must be making some error, but I just can't seem to figure out what it is.
+cachew nut Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 Ok, Edit your profile. Enter signature in signature box. Enter password in password box. Click Update button on bottom of page. If next page says you updated successfully, delete all your cookies. If you use Internet Explorer, from the Tools pulldown TOOLS > INTERNET OPTIONS > DELETE COOKIES You may want to delete the Temporary files and clear your history as well. Click OK. Close your browser Open your browser Go to www.geocaching.com Log In Click the forums button on the left, do not use any shortcuts or favorites, use the button. On the next page click the link to enter the forums, again no shortcuts, use the link Log in to the forums. Hope this works.
+Sevilon Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 I very much appreciate your help, Cachew. Thank you. Still no sig, but thank you!!
+MrCOgeo Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 (edited) Here's some visual rep's that might help of crucial update buttons: (I know personally have to see a thing, I am very visual) 1) Profile Update Button (i.e. Update button on bottom of page): 2) Forums Update Button (i.e. "forums" link on the left-side of the page on the main site): Also feel free to contact me and we'll see what I can do to help out further, if needed.
