I see some posters have information about themselves when you click on their usernames and the “summary” page comes up. I tried to modify my profile to add some info, but it still doesn’t seem to appear. Can anyone see any info (pronouns, a few other things) besides my user name? If not, how do I put it there? ---

I see the loaded website and “He/Him. Author. Processor of oxygen into carbon dioxide. Enjoyer of oysters.” I checked your Interface settings and you have **Hide my public profile and presence features** unchecked as it should be. Loading should work in the Preferences, Profile and it looks like it does for you. ---

Same, and I get a 404 error when I click on the link to your website. ---

Also same, including the 404 error. – You can add your location also; and it’s often useful context to know at least approximately where in the world the poster is. ---

I see same as everyone else. It’s pretty common for links to websites to be dead in profiles on the Dope. Even if the posters are active on the board, the link may not have been updated for years. Some people still have MySpace links.
