I swear mine is gone. And I do have Charter Member status.

If it’s gone, then I ask Why? Or if it’s still here, how do I reëstablish mine? I don’t see anything in the control panel that reïnserts it.

Am I missing something?

You’ll have to put it in manually.

@running_coach How? EDIT: Oh, manually. Cut and paste the text, if you want. Is that what you meant 🙂 ?

As far as I know, Discourse does not support automatic signatures like vBulletin did. So I assume the signature files would not have been imported.

If you want to use a signature, you’ll need to type it in or cut and paste.
