What’s with ppls profiles hidden?
Used to friend request before but can’t see anything like that :thinking:

Profiles are Hidden by default, so I think that’s catching a lot of people out. Yours is hidden at the moment too, but you can change that in Preferences → Interface, and you uncheck the ā€˜Hide my public profile and presence features’ box. :+1:

There’s no friend requests any more. They kept them on the last version as a legacy feature, but without the Chat it didn’t really make any sense, as you couldn’t do much else with them. :slightly_smiling_face:

It might be worth having a look at the Disco bot thread if you’re struggling with anything, the tutorials cover most of the features of the new forum quite well

Excellent suggestion. :+1::slightly_smiling_face:

Here you go:

Cheers both x

I wonder about the hidden profile thing. Just don’t reveal too much.It is nice to know a few basic details though.

I’ve nothing to hide. Though one of my kids is old enough to be on here now :scream: That would be awkward :rofl::rofl:

@Puppies77 i know what you mean, but just the basics that give no hint to identity would probably be fine.

Just in case you missed it, @Puppies77 is actually a member from some years ago (10 :scream:). They may know that bit already. :slightly_smiling_face:


Edit: Is that better? :slightly_smiling_face:

@Ian_Chimp yes, just discussing hidden profiles, not suggesting anything! Often it would be handy to at least know gender to save embarrassment or offence.

Sorry buddy, I didn’t think you were suggesting anything. :slightly_smiling_face: I’ll stop digging myself any deeper… :slightly_smiling_face:

No problem, i know you’re just being the forum’s guardian angel! :slightly_smiling_face:

Does the Nice/Good/Great Reply badge actually work currently? I was just wondering as I’ve got well over 25 likes on a couple of posts and i was wondering if i was misunderstanding the badge description or if it’s not working properly

The photo ones don’t count anymore as the category is restricted to ā€˜account holders’ only, so appears to be ineligible for Badges. :+1:

I flagged a post a few days ago but didn’t receive a badge. Felt a bit of a tell tale flagging it too :joy:

I think for the Badge you need to Flag a post (not a topic), and it can’t be ā€˜something else’. :+1:

I believe you can go Flag yourself :slightly_smiling_face: (and I think that counts too :+1:)

I’m not too fussed with badge collecting but was bored and saw someone had posted with a link to a rival company (Jan Sommers) so thought I’d flag to see what happened.
