Description of problem

Hi!

The problem that I noticed yesterday was that while visiting a forum as a guest, when you go into topics you cannot click on the user's profile, because the link is non-existent. The name sometimes acts like it's a link but you cannot click on it, does not take you anywhere.
Today I noticed the same thing with the recent topics widget again you can't click on the users' name which is why the script that shows the avatars for users doesn't work while browsing as a guest. Everything is fine while being logged in, but it's kinda annoying that it feels like many features has been removed as a guests.
I linked one page as an example but as far as I can see most sites I visit have the same issue.
Is there a way to fix this, to get the links back?

Thank you in advance.

Where is the link to the page with the issue?  I only see the link to your forum.

I linked one of the forums where the issue is happening (it changed yesterday on all forums that I checked), if you go to one of the posts for example:
https://livin-in-new-york.hungarianforum.com/t17-szabalyzat

You cannot click on the Admin's name to go to their profile. Also the the contact "profile" button from the bottom also disappeared with that.

And regarding to the recent topic issue:

This is what you see as guests, you cannot click on either of their names:

Hello

There was an update and forumotion has removed the link to the profiles in the topics for the guests (no change for members )

So there is no way for me to undo or fix this?

we can only provide help to the admin/founder of that forum for appearance or other issues
since you are just a member I'm sorry we can not help any further

So.. If I want to fix it on my own forum with founder access.. It's possible to do so?

please open a new thread if you want help with your forum

-at the moment the profile link update can not be undone
-regarding the recent topic issue the founder of that forum must open here a thread if he/she wants any help

i will mark this as solved/answered

thank you
