Maybe it's just me and missing something very obvious, but after signing up I ended up in a Wordpress environment where I could update my account settings. However when you're in the actual forum, is there a link back to this? Or do people have to remember/bookmark photographylife.com/wp-admin? Under My Profile > Account there is no link/button.
Hi @ronaldsmeets, welcome to the forum! If I'm understanding your question, it should be the small icon of a person + pencil (see the attached screenshot) once you're on My Profile.
Hi Spencer,
Could it be I only have/see the notification bell?
@ronaldsmeets That's interesting, give me a moment and I'll see what I can do.
@ronaldsmeets What is it that you want to change in your account details? If the My Profile > Account page doesn't have it, it's probably not something we intend for people to be able to change.
Spencer is right - you should be able to go to My Profile -> Account to make changes to your account. You can also use photographylife.com/wp-admin, but we only keep that for 2FA purposes. Ideally, you want to modify your forum info through the Account page.
OK, so maybe I'm up against the following:
`You should have minimum number of approved posts to be able edit your profile information`
I cannot see any other options but the notice bell on my profile as well. Since we are all new members, could this have something to do with it...
I guess it's 3 posts 😀 . Now I am able to change my profile picture. 👍
Thank you everyone for your feedback! I am currently working on changing some of the settings, and I went ahead and set the minimum post count to 1 in order to be able to modify your profile. Please try again and let me know how it goes!
@curiousmike, thanks for the feedback and I hope it works now. Nasim has been quickly fixing a lot of these initial issues - let us know if you notice anything else that needs work.

Hehe, been gone a few hours and voila :) Seems you and/or Nasim have made some changes and now I can do a lot more:
@spencer it's just that after I created the account I got redirected to the Wordpress admin panel and got a pop up to set 2FA (which I did). After that you can go to the forum being logged in, but it looked like you never could return to that admin panel. That was just a little strange / confusing :)
Thanks for sorting it out that quickly 👍
Glad it all worked out in the end Ronald! Thank you for the feedback!
@megaz no problem, glad to help out. Nice for a change to be part of something new on the internet - it's still reasonably 'quiet' here and not overwhelming. Hope it can keep expanding on a steady pace and that it'll gradually evolve into a sociable forum with likeminded people.
