Why does my signature not work?

Postby Boris » May 11th, '15, 19:54



I have set it and re-set it, but it never displays. I have the check on the 'attach a signature' and I've even edited my post, removing the check and then replacing the check and it still doesn't work. I've also noticed that it is included when I send a PM, it just doesn't show up on the forum.

Any help?

Regrettably the signature feature was being badly misused by spammers and certain others so the forum owner owner turned it off. There are some exceptions but, until the sigs are turned on again, they won't appear, sorry.

Is this restriction still in place, or should signatures now be working again?

My signature does show up when I click the "Preview" button, but when I click "Submit", it doesn't show up in the published post.

Yet I noticed that there are quite a number of users for whom their signature does appear below all their posts right now.

Sigs in general are still turned off, sorry.

Thanks for the update. I can appreciate that sometimes forum moderators need to make these kinds of executive decisions in the fight against spam and other internet nasties.

At least now I can quit playing around with my settings trying to get it to work, now that I know what the issue is! :)
