I am a Registered User

pootsie

While I appreciate the official status of being "registered," the title of "Registered User" strikes me as a tad mundane.

When i first signed up, the title "neophyte" was applied without any of my input --- not that I mind it, since I'm a big fan of the beginner's mind approach to bonsai, work, recovery, sex, and just life in general. Then it was switched after I posted a few times (I don't recall what the next title was).

Anyway, my "using" days are over, even if I still use the forum

I have serched in vain for the function on the user CP that allows me to assign my own title.

I imagine that somewhere in the UserCP there is a function that looks like this:

Please select your title

• Apprentice
• Nare-do-well
• Journeyman
• Stickfigure
• Please Correct Your Email Address
• Crow
• Equal of Heaven
• Apprentice at Wuggums-En

Can someone help me

I believe that after a certain number of posts you can go to your profile page and edit that title, or if left alone it will change automatically as your posts increase.

I do enjoy your beginners outlook of life!

Heya Pootsie,

Under "User CP", go to "Edit Profile".

There will be a section titled "Optional Information", and in that section is an area that says "Custom User Title".

That is where you can change it.

I don't think so Poots... I was able to change the title before I ever contributed. But that was the old site. I think it may be a glitch that Matt has to work out. I also noticed there are a bunch of new users recently with less than 50 posts who have uploaded custom avatars... so, I think it's just a buggy thing and I'm sure Matt will get it fixed when he has the chance.

EDIT: Oh looky there, you're a BonsaiTALK Journeyman!

Jennifer was right. It was just something in the REGISTERED USER defaults.

I think in your user control panel under Profile you can make changes to your signature and title.

Of course, I have been wrong before.

Regards,

Matt

P.S. Thanks for the idea about the contributions, Pootsie!

When? Don't go and ruin my perceptions now, darn it!

When? Well, here are a few of my most recent wrongdoings:

• The meaning of BANZAI
• The collected pine
• I also banned Emperor Fish over a misunderstanding concerning a language we both claim to speak. He got un-banned straightaway, of course, but the damage was done.

I'm told I was wrong here, but dontcha believe it:

• When to repot a newly purchased azalea

Regards,

Matt
