What is a forum profile , and how is it accessible?
How is this different than an official Profile?
If you click the question mark and go to the person icon and click summary then it will open a page and you can click preferences and then profile will be a choice and you can type a message there.
I had the same problem. I don’t know why they are not all shown on the bookmark page, but if you click your avatar on the right upper corner and then click the bookmark icon two times, you will see all of your bookmarks.
Thank you, I did not see all that you mentioned, but I appreciate your response. The reason I asked is because a member said to read his forum profile , I still don’t understand why though.
Have great Thanksgiving!!
Hi!
Click that person’s avatar picture and when their “info card” opens, you can read their forum profile. (Edit. Click the avatar picture again, if the profile text is longer, then you can read the whole text). Everyone decides what they want to write there. Some may for example have a wishlist or links to their collections there, which is why they might ask you to check them there, depends on the context, of course.
For myself: I’ve put my address into my forum profile, for example. Also some people put their wishlists there instead of into the official Postcrossing profile. Good idea, I think: You aren’t supposed to have demanding lists in your Postcrossing profile.
Thank you, I didn’t know that there is another list.
But that solves not my problem, because there are only pretty old threads (one week and older) with my last post, not even the threads with newer posts of me. And I can’t see (for example) if in a preferred tag-thread was new activity.
The problem has existed for some time and we have discussed it in this topic and also in the german part of the forum
Here is the answer of Paulo:
Sorry, I still cannot find this information … I only have access on my mobile phone and cannot see any of these options when I click on a members avatar on the forum. So if there is important information about a member there that is not on the official profile, I hope they understand that not everyone can see it if they are not as good at manuerving the system.
Please tell me what’s the meaning of pm,
i always see them in others’topic
i’ll delate this topic after i understand it
Welcome to the forum
PMs are Private Messages.
Look what meiadeleite wrote in this topic ( I recommend that you read there more about the forum)
And another interesting topic about PMs are here How to send Personal Messages (PM's) to others on the forum?
It is available on mobiles, too. If you click on either a username or the profile pictures you’ll see the so called user card:
On the user card itself you’ll see the first few lines of the bio if it was edited.
Now click the username again and you will get to the forum profile of that user.
Thank you!
I wonder is it ok to participate in too much lotteries?
As long as there’s no restriction about who can participate in the first post of the lottery you can take part in as many lotteries as you like.
If you take part in chain lotteries, you have to make sure to continue the chain, though, if you win.
This is a dumb question, but I see people frequently posting links to their postcards sent or received where it shows the a tiny picture of the postcard with the link. I tried doing the same thing yesterday but it only resulted in a link to click on. How do I get my link to look like the one in this pic? Thanks.
You have to write only the link of the card in an extra row - like this

For some reason that didn’t work for me yesterday but I just edited my other post and it’s working now. Thanks!
Hello
Is there a way to not have the green dot showing on your photo when you’re online?
I often leave myself logged in by accident & don’t like to think that people think I’m ignoring them. Also, due to health issues I’m not always well enough to reply to emails, but I still like to have a browse though various posts, again, I dont like to think of people wondering why I’m not replying even though I’m online.
Thank you
Click on your avatar for your menu then click the bottom icon (little person silhouette) then go to Preferences → Interface and check the box that says “Hide my public profile and presence features”
