| I've tried all my browsers (FF, IE9, Opera, Comodo Dragon [Chrome]), but cannot change my email address in my GW profile. I get some page with some sort of code. But no particular updating error message and the email address is not changed.
Does anyone else have this issue with profile -- or specifically email address -- updates ? (As a side note, another issue is that every time I 'previewed' this post, I had to re-upload the image. It wouldn't 'stick.' But that's for another day, I guess.) |

| At one time, one had to log in from the main GW page in order for one to be able to update their profile. First I'd log out and then try logging in from Main Page and then try to update your email. Also I found this from some time ago over on The Suggestion Forum. For member profile page issues: Sue |

| Thanks, Sue. I went to my profile page and filled in some missing info (like 'state'), but that didn't do the trick. Then I changed my password. At first it wouldn't accept my password changes and wasn't sure why (see next paragraph). I got the same weird page as above. So, I changed it to "abcd." That it accepted !! Then I changed my email address and it accepted it ! Success ! Then, of course, I changed my password again. ;-) Btw, it turns out that LastPass was auto-filling with a 16-character password which also had special characters -- a password which I had been successfully using with GW for months. Strange, since the profile page says passwords can only be 12 characters max. and no special characters (except "_"). In any case, it's all straightened out now. Thanks ! |

| Great! What I have noticed is that if I look at the URL of a member's page, if there is no backslash sign in front of the member's name at the end, then they will experience problems updating. Before you got the problem corrected, there was no backslash in front of your member name in Your member page URL but there is one now. See what I mean?
