Problem with Signatures

by Ik0n88 March 12th 2010, 8:33 pm

For some reason I can't get my signatures to show up for anyone. I've checked the option to "Always attach signature" in my profile and it shows up in my profile yet doesn't display on the forums. Is there somewhere in the configuration that I have to enable signatures?

It won't appear on old posts. Only posts that you make now will have them.

It still isn't appearing for anyone. Even if I go back and click "attach signature" on older posts it still doesn't appear. Here is the link to my forum if it helps.

Your Signature

Signature settings are to be changed in your profile settings as well (in the top navigation bar) - just switch to the "Signature" tab there. The signature space is limited to 500 characters, this cannot be increased. You can use bbCode and HTML as well in your sig, if it has been allowed by the administrators in the admin panel (General >> Forum >> Messages & Email >> Allow HTML / BBCode).

My Signature is not displayed, what should I do?

In general, there are two settings that could be the reason for your sig not to be displayed. The first one is in your admin panel, where you can allow or deny the use of signatures on a global level. Go to "Users & Groups / Users / User Options" and set "Allow Signatures" to YES.

The second option can be found in your personal profile settings. Go to "Profile >> Preferences" and enable the option "Always attach my signature". Your signature should now be attached to all posts you make, if you actually have content in it.

Note: On some forum versions, it's possible that you still won't see your signatures on posts you have already made, although you have activated all necessary options. There is no other way to change this than to edit those posts and mark the box "attach my signature to this post" and save.
