Ok, I give up! Help with Profile please!

Have you cleaned out your cookies or your temporary internet files?? Trying doing that and doing this over and see if it works.

Oh Faith, you are not very helpful with your question.. so how to help with a helpful answer? :P You are right that changes won't be saved until you close the edit. Imagine you are typing the html stuff in the html sortie now. Ok when you are done, there should be a close at the top right of that sortie. After you do that, just close that whole tab, you don't need it anymore. You should see the changes updated at your profile page then.

I have been having about the same kind of problem also with my profile. I go to make changes and the changes supposedly take affect but when i go to my profile and check it again, it is still the same with no changes made to it. It is very frustrating to figure out. I gave up on figuring it all out. I didn't have any problems with it until Mylot did the upgrade and made several changes with the sorties and such. I hope someone can help you with this. I got too frustrated.

I wish I could help you, byfaithonly, but I need to learn how to do some of these thins myself. I have been working on my geocities page with a bit of success. I just need to learn more. Hope someone can help you.

I'm given to understand that there is a firewall issue with editing the sorties. I tried for ages to get mine to work and they never have - neither at work where I'm on a fairly secure network nor at home where I'm on our minor home network. I'd kill to be able to post my feed widgets on my profile - AC articles, blog posts, things of that nature - but I just cannot get it to work. I've given up, but I'll keep reading threads like yours to see if I can find an answer that solves the problem!

Faith, I am trying for the 3rd time to post this but I think because I am entering a code, it won't let me post. Try using the code 'html' in front of and in back of it. Don't forget the slash mark in the back. I tried it both ways, and it wouldn't save without it. Hope this helps

Way to go, byfaithonly! After having read the responses to your questions, it looks like you have the fine folks on myLot stumped. But I will say, in their defense, it seems like it is probably a myLot problem. The feature should work consistently and be easy for everyone. Personally, I have not modified my profile yet, so I was hoping you would get a really nice answer which I can learn from. Maybe you still will.

Maybe you have to logout and login again. If that doesn't work ask mylot for help. Good luck and have a great weekend!

Faith for some reason I had the same Problem a few weeks back and I gave up on it to be honest So I hope that someone here can tell you and I will keep a look out for it as I would like to know

yes I had the same problem when I changed my profile I would clicj edit, type my html and then close edit but nothing would change I just did it several times - just copy and paste you html so you don't have to type it all again - and after 5 times maybe it saved my changes! weird ... I think there is a glitch there actually good luck

LOL, faith. Same goes with me. If you check my profile now, its ugly. Its still under construction. I also tried to paste the html but the word close edit is nowhere. I did it right one time but I don't know why it disappear. Must be the glitch or something. I will try to give it another shot later. I hope I won't be pulling all my furs off this time, LOL!

Hello byfaithonly. I did a massive profile overhaul when the site update took place & I can definately understand your frustration. One of the things I have noticed when adding html to the sorties is that you have to do more than just paste in the data. Believe it or not a blank space or any other entry after the pasted in html will allow the sortie to accept the info. If I may suggest, add a couple of BRs before and after your entry. Of course, you do have to add the to the BR to make it work, but it will also give you a space between your entries and also make it a little easier for future alterations. :)

EEK....I'm having the same problems! I also know html but nothing I do will work and I've been trying for days. I hope you get some good responses so I can get the help too. I also tried to leave you a very nice comment but only my words showed up and the html came out all weird...I'm sorry about that, but the thought was there.

Which browser do you use? What is your computer specifications?

This happened to me too! And the links that i did have there are gone!! Is Mylot cleaning up our profiles now?

Oh, cool! I didn't even know we had a profile until you mentioned it. If it's important, hang around and work on it. Otherwise, just post some questions and responses to earn some money. Best of luck with your profile.
