Description of problem

Hello everyone. Some signatures showing in old posts/absent in new ones I_beli10

I have read all posts related to signatures before and I seem to be in a pinch that has not been solved here yet.

Part 1: One of the Administrators had her Birthday today so I (as an Admin too) decided to edit her profile and create a signature for her.

I have enabled signatures for all Members in the ACP;
she has ticked the box "always attach my Signature" in her Profile section in the ACP;
from what I have read on here beforehand, her sig being brand-new  should only appear in new posts and not in the old ones unless she herself edits these old posts.

Problem is: her signature does show in old posts that appear to be random (different topics, yet not on all posts in said topics, not considering anything like post age). Which shouldn't be since they're old posts and have to be edited to allow that sig display.

Part 2: For 2 other Admins, signature was added by them some time ago, and it stopped showing in some posts. Especially in one topic, it shows on one post but doesn't in any of those following.
I've read something about topic title's length but it doesn't seem to be the issue here (sig shows in both long-name topics and short-name ones; plus it both shows and is absent in the same topic).
For one of the other Admins it showed on Feb 13th, however didn't on March 6th and so on.Some signatures showing in old posts/absent in new ones Dunno10 

I'll wholeheartedly welcome help from anyone dropping by. Some signatures showing in old posts/absent in new ones Hug10

Hello,


You would have to go to each post and update it separately, or not at all. The new ones do not apply to older posts. I have had similar issues before, with the signatures not displaying.
you can suggest a suggestion to update the signatures when changed in the following thread:
