User Information Function Bugs
User Information Function Bugs
Hai.
In order to edit my signature, I must do so via ["User Control Panel"->"Profile"]. I cannot do so via ["Profile]. Surely this is a bug or flaw of some kind.
Also, In the "Profile" page reached from the drop-down menu in the top right of the site, the contact information is too far right – at least in my case.

Re: User Information Function Bugs
I don't think it's a bug, „Profile" shows you your profile outlook, while you can change it using „User Control Panel". I think it's perfectly fine.
I don't have such an issue in the second case, personally.

Re: User Information Function Bugs
There is absolutely no sense in having one page where you can edit and view your own profile, and another where you can only edit it. Either remove the latter or make it the exact same.
Re: User Information Function Bugs
The thing is, using the „User Control Panel" you can't see your profile page, it's just a sort of editor, whereas using the „Profile" feature you can see how others see you! They are two different things, although I agree, they could be in the same section. Still, it's pretty trivial and irrelevant IMO.
Re: User Information Function Bugs
Yeah the profile is the view others see of you. Its easier to have just one, or at least bake everything into the same tabs. But its just built that way as default..
Btw, the user control panel is likely to get some change soon. It is pretty ugly right now. It is just a pretty big task because there is soo much functionality and different pages/sections in there

User control panel -> tab "profile" -> under submenu find link "edit profile [view profile]". Which basically takes you out of the control panel to the profile
Re: User Information Function Bugs
Ah, yeah, I didn't notice that in the first place. But by having a separate „Profile" tab available from wherever you are at ESOC you have a nice shortcut to see your profile!
Re: User Information Function Bugs
Yes. What I'm saying is that you should have an even nicer shortcut to both see and edit your profile.pecelot wrote:Ah, yeah, I didn't notice that in the first place. But by having a separate „Profile" tab available from wherever you are at ESOC you have a nice shortcut to see your profile!

I can maybe link the profile link (in the top menu) to the edit profile page/tab, and make a bit clearer link like "what does my profile look like for other users?" which will take you there. But the i also do feel that the top menu then has two links to the user control panel which gets a bit confusing and unnecessary. Maybe just "user control panel" is enough in that case?
Thoughts?
Re: User Information Function Bugs
I agree, that would be simplier and better.
Re: User Information Function Bugs
Either one would be fine. I'd go with the latter, because although the profile page(s) are (I would assume) by far the most visisted ones, they are very accessible from the user control-panel page.91 wrote:zoom wrote:Yes.
