Feedback Error editing "Account details" section...

[PoetJC]

Hey all - Just to report an issue I've just had when trying to edit my account details section...
Error message appears in screencap below:



Only thing is ==> There's no section to edit location. So there's a setting that needs to be fixed and/or allowed users to edit the field...?
IDK. But wanted to bring it to your attention in case anyone else has the issue.
Cheers.

Just to awkward I can't replicate it using the latest version of Windows 10/Firefox. I have however seen that or a very similar error recently while dealing with content in moderation.

I didn't report it because it went away.

Hmmm. I'm using Windows 10 as well. Only I use Vivaldi as my main browser.
Will see if I can replicate the error on Firefox. Interesting...

Thanks for trying. Odd. I don't think it's a permissions issue. I'll have poke around and see what I can find.

I can't replicate it so far. However I do think it might be a user group error...still looking into it.

I think there's a setting where you can allow users to change whichever custom form fields are available. I think that may be at the root of the issue, because I cannot see a way to even edit the location setting. So = It may be that the form field permission needs to be revised so users can edit it...? I **think** that's the issue anyway LOL. Best of luck

Can you try now?

You fixed it! Now the Location form field shows and I was able to make edits.
Thanks so much

It was a spam measure that ultimately caused this issue.
