ok i figured out #2
one have to go to site scheme you want , then bookmark it ...
weird , but ok

edit: nope that doesn't work properly

[jlittle]

1- change my avatar...

click user at top right... click "My Profile"

3- adding a signature i don't see an option under user settings
any help with that please ?

I suspect the closest is called "PC Specs"

[die.boer]

thanks
there is nothing to change avatar under my profile , in FAQ ive read you have to hover over default avatar and a link will pop up that you can use to change avatar...well nothing pops up
under user settings nothing shows except password and email...no pc specs or anything
IDK, is there some restriction for new users before they can access those functions ?

[Snowhog]

You can try again.

You click on your username at the top right and select My Profile. On the left, click on Edit Avatar. When finished, you can then click on Edit Settings to get to your User Settings page.

Well, I have to admit some of this is not obvious to find and may be blocked until you post a few more times.

Your "Avatar" should be the first thing in upper right when User Profile is selected. Below you Avatar on the right is "Edit Avatar"

To add PC specs, while in User Profile, click "Edit Settings" and scroll to the bottom. You should see "PC Specs" there.

To add a signature line and/or image, it's User Profile > Edit Settings > Account tab, then about half way down under "Conversation Detail Options" look for "Edit Post Signature"

Putting pics is the Signature can be a pain because it's real restrictive on size - both resolution and file size.

[die.boer]

ok cool , all the options is now available
thanks to whoever unlocked it

[claydoh]

thanks to whoever unlocked it

That would be you.. as you passed the minimum post count (3?) to enable some features.

Hello die.boer,
I have nothing really to add to this discussion other than to welcome you to the Kubuntu forum, Enjoy!
