Question User Cp Profile Privacy not working.

When editing user cp setting, under profile privacy, the display options allow you to determine who can view your profile/friends...etc. Its default is "Everyone", when trying to change them from default to user specific, and save changes, it defaults back to everyone again. Ive tried numerous times to edit and make changes in that section and it doesnt work. Any help would be apreciatted.

Just to see (I can't help it! I help moderate on several forums ) I checked. No problem here, I can change each setting to one of the choices in the dropdown box and save it. Maybe if the OP would come back and describe what he/she sees when a box is selected and what he/she means by "user specific". A screenshot would be helpful.

Not sure that's really necessary because when I told our IB rep about it initially, we both discovered that the same problem affected both of us too, which is why I thought it was a global problem.

Basically, all that happens is after the switch and save, nothig gets saved and it reverts back to the default setting.

I appreciate you checking though, thanks!

Seems to work fine for me, Firefox on a Win10 laptop, I just fiddled with some settings and changed them back and all was OK. Maybe you need to restart your browser?

Thank you!
I am using a Samsung Tablet A with Google and I see no screen options to change anything, such as my avatar, etc.

Sorry, I know nothing about the mobile app (don't use it myself).

The tech group has it wrong. There is no way for me to edit my profile.
