+monsterbox Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Hi! I can't save my profile "about" any longer. I'm using GSAK and FSG to create my personal profile and it did work until last week. I wanted to upload my actual changes and after saving the "about" part is empty. Any ideas what this could be? Too much info in that part? Or "just" a simple bug? Thanks, Christian Quote Link to comment
+Isonzo Karst Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) Browser? sometimes these issues are browser related. Scroll the whole page and look for an error message, -> Please remove any third party image sources. You can get this message even though the image was uploaded to Geocaching.com, if the URL is amazon cloud - s3.amazonaws.com I just checked, and yep, your profile image of monster with box, is on amazon. You won't be able to edit until you remove that and reload it ... Edited April 30, 2020 by Isonzo Karst Quote Link to comment
+HHL Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Use this URL: https://www.geocaching.com/account/settings/profile#Biography and paste the just clipped stats into the "About" text field.

+Isonzo Karst Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) Hans, I was hoping your link would work, and it does, as does (for me) the site edit link https://www.geocaching.com/account/settings/profile Edited April 30, 2020 by Isonzo Karst Quote Link to comment

I think that link would work Edited April 30, 2020 by QuentinPA Quote Link to comment

Bummer. This is an Firefox 75 issue. Firefox75 gives this: Where I do expect this: Hans Quote Link to comment

Still doesn't work. It saves a short text, but not the profile created by FSG :-( Too bad. I even deleted my profile pic, also didn't help. Will see what happens now and when this gets fixed finally... Thanks for your ideas and suggestions, I really appreciate it! Quote Link to comment

Thanks for your ideas and suggestions, I really appreciate it! Ok, got a solution, that works for me! It seems that my profile info became too long. After removing one part, it could be saved again. So, there seems to be a length limit, can't tell, how much it is, but there is one... Thanks again for coming up with some ideas on what I could try! Bye, Christian Quote Link to comment
