Unable to change preferences

[kenedii]

I've gone into my preference options but all the changes revert back to default once I leave the page. I could be going blind but I didn't see a save button if there is one.

 

A prior post stated clearing the browser and cache would correct the problem. It didn't work for me. Not sure if this info is needed but I've only explored the DAO network.

 

Sooo... help please.

Check your browser's "zoom" level. The way the pages are laid-out, if you zoom (exceed 100%) you can hide critical controls without knowing it.

 

There is a "Save Changes" button at the bottom of the "Settings" page.

Hello Thandal,

 

Thanks for the help. I zoomed the 'edit preference' page out and unfortunately, I didn't miss any controls. :S The only buttons at the bottom of this page is 'submit' for donations and 'go premium'.

 

The profile 'my settings' page does have a save option. However, not all the options are included in this area that are on the 'preference' page. As far as I can determine there is no way to change the preference options via the 'edit preference' page from my end (I've cleared browser history/cookies/cache several time with no change).

 

I'm assuming the preference page is locked to the profile for all the communities(?) so would it be possible for an administrator to make a hard change (that's probably not the right term :S ) on my account for these options?

 

I know some feed and tracking options are also listed on the Profile/My Setting page but I didn't double check if the ones I listed are.

 

Premium Mem Preference

# of files per page 50

# of comments per page 50

 

Global Preferences

Adult Content Yes

File Rating reminder every 14 days

 

Feeds Preferences

Show user activity on files you're tracking Yes

Show author updates about files you're using Yes

 

Notification Preferences

Display notifications in your user bar Yes

Receive notifications for site news Yes

 

If these changes can't be made on your end what other options are available? I know this is frustrating so thanks again for the help.

When you're in the individual game sites, the very bottom of the "Set preferences" screen looks like this (and yes, it's one set of preferences across all the sites):

Not sure what you're seeing, but the Staff here can't change individual preferences for a user. :confused:

Thandal,

 

Yeppers - I have the submit button and .... ummm - feeling more then foolish at the moment ... for some reason I was thinking that was for the paypal donations info only.

 

Thanks again for the help and sorry to have been a bother.

No bother, that's what we're here for. Was just worried that the button really wasn't appearing for you!

 

Glad all is well now. :thumbsup:
