Member's profile status

[Francois Normandin]

What is the function of the member "status" ? What is the expected status?

This works the same as the facebook status. You can put whatever you like there. have fun with it.

It shows up in your profile for others to see. Tell the world what you're doing.

It appears to be sort of like a tweet. Select Update and type in what you want to show people.

I don't see this status widget, but I would like to use it.  Has it been "updated away?"  Where can I set it?

When signed in if you click on your profile in the upper right corner and go to Profile you'll see your page.  Here you'll find your feed that others can view, and subscribe to follow.  I believe in the last rounds of forum updates the simple status update was turned into a more facebook like page with content you follow and posts you've made.

Thanks:

Ok, so when I do that and select "See my Activity>Status updates" it shows "nothing here yet".  I am unable to locate the place where I enter my status update.

Don't click See my Activity, just on that page you can enter a message, attached image as an example.

funny, that is not there for me:  In either Chrome or IE.:

Odd, I'm unaware of any reason this wouldn't work.  Perhaps you need to have a set number of posts, or been a member for so long.  I'm sorry I don't know.
