How can you edit your "signature line"?

Mokumbear · May 1, 2014, 05:34 PM

It looks like it should be easy but I haven't been able to do it.

Here's how:

Click on the link, "User CP" at the top left of any page.
Scroll down the menu on the left side of the CP page.
Under Settings and Options, click on "Edit Signature."
That will take you to a page with a box that looks just like the regular "reply" box -- enter whatever you want for your signature, then click "Save Signature."

It's also not a bad idea to preview it.

Pull down the Quick Links menu and select Edit Signature.

This is a little embarrassing, given that I've been a member here for over 14 years...

But where's the Quick Links menu?

When you open up TFL, look for the white box in the top corner that says "Welcome, Mike Irwin"

From the W in Welcome, go down approx 1 inch with your mouse, and you will be smack in the middle of the "Quick Links" drop down.

Mike, you should be embarrassed.

JimmyR's navigation works to get there, and it is just right of the Search menu.

Me, too, Mike; missed that "Quick Links" thing entirely. But it makes it a bit less embarrassing to know I'm in good company.
