nixy Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Can anyone tell me why when am i online, not hidden, can see my name in the list at the bottom, it always says offline next to my name yet other people that are here are its says online (apart from Sarnie who permanently hides!) It is like this on my home and work comp. Not an issue just wondered? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 You are online to me. I will log on with your password and have a look. Only joking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I always show as offline aswell You are showing as offline to me though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I will leave the admin to comment but you are both online to me. I guess it must be down to your personal settings. I assume that in your profile you have enabled show online status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M13KYF Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 unlike Martin I can look at your account and it does seem to be set correctly. weird You show to me as online and not hidden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Could it be because I might not have ticked the "hide my online status this session" ? My profile is set to show as offline but maybe that tick box over rides the profile? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesterfield Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 If at any time you have set your preference to always hide your online status, this will not revert back until you physically log off and log back in again. To check your status, go to the "User control panel" (top left) click "board preferences" set "hide my online status" to "no" click "submit". once you have done this you will need to log out (button on right on top menu). Then log back in again and it should be working and showing you as online now when you are here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
