General

This page contains general information about your user profile. Anything you enter here will be visible to other users if Show Profile is checked on the Options page.

Identity

This section allows you to share information about yourself with other users. Only include information here that you don't mind sharing with other people.

The Email field is important because this address is used to assign you a new password in the event that you forget yours.

To format the About field using WFML or to include images in place of emoticons, use the toolbar above the About field. For more information about WFML or the emoticons, click the Help button (Help) on the toolbar.

The Picture field allows you include a gif, png, or jpg image (height=100, width=100) in your user profile. Enter the URL of the image you would like others to see in your profile.

Usage Statistics

This section displays the number of posts and last post date for the available services.

User Warning System

If you are the site administrator you can warn users of inappropriate or unacceptable activity. This section displays a list of all past warnings (if there are any), if the user is currently locked out, and a form for you to submit warnings to the user.

When you warn a user, an email will be sent to them with the text of the warning. If the incident is bad enough or the user has been warned for the same activity before, you can initiate a temporary lockout (from 1 to 7 days). The user will be informed of the lockout via email as well.

If the user is currently locked out, you can cancel the lockout and allow the user to log back into the system by clicking the Unlock button.
