IMPORTANT INFO REGARDING YOUR PROFILE

[Pauline]

You may remember that to keep out the spammers a security question was added to profiles, it is a simple one that a human would know but not a spam bot.

This question needs to be added back into your profile since the upgrade. It is very easy to do and I have included a screenshot to help you.

Note: If you joined after 30th Dec 2011 you will have already added this when you registered so you don't need to do it again.

If you have any problems at all please do ask as I am happy to help.
Unless you add this answer you will receive error messages if you update your profile, change email address etc.

OK so ....

1. Click on your UserCP (left in the row of options below where you log in)
2. Click on "Edit details"
3. In the box that appears there are three things at the top, option to edit your email address, your date of birth and the special question about the first letter of childminding.

4. Simply answer that question
5. Scroll down to the bottom and click SAVE

Simples

To get rid of the message that keeps reminding you, just click the red cross in the top right hand corner.

Note: If you cannot add the answer, just let me know and I will add it for you.

This picture (click on it to make it larger) explains a bit more, but I could not add a pic of the save button as it was too big a picture

Hi Pauline,
I did try but it says I'm not allowed access to "edit details"
What am I doing wrong?!
Thanks, Nancie.

[Pauline]

Ah, you are not doing anything wrong Nancie, new members cannot access their profiles (hadn't thought of that!) it is another feature to keep the spammers out.

I will do it for you

Hi Emma

you won't need to add the question as you have registered today and added it at registration

If you let me know what wants editing in your post I will do it for you, these restrictions only last a short time and then you will be able to do things yourself, it is all to keep spammers out. Full details in the members information section
