Is the signature function working? I have my settings set to “show signatures” but I don’t see any. Perhaps no one has chosen to have a signature anymore?? Or I haven’t checked enough threads yet?? (I sorta doubt that, though.) ---

Can anyone answer this? Are signatures showing up for anyone else? ---

I can see signatures. At least I see my own. There is a signature in my previous post but not in this one. ---

Thanks **Arnold**. I see your sig. When I tested it with my own a few days ago, however, I couldn’t see mine. Hmmmmmm… can one normally see there own sig? I know you said you saw your own, but I didn’t know if that was because of some Board-Super-Powers you may have. I will test my own sig on the next post. It should read **“This is a sig”**. ---

wait— I see that i have to check the “show signature” box under “Misc.” after every post. I did not know that. I thought just enabling the sig feature in User CP did it. OK. I think I have it now.
