I am sure thst this is a stupid question. But I cannot see how to edit my profile. I noticed that there is some outdated information in my profile because I haven't updated it in such a long time. So I went to my profile page; but I saw no "edit" button. I hope that someone will point me in the right direction on this matter.
In the upper right, where you see your userID, mouse over for the menu to appear, and then select which area you want to edit. At that bottom of that page/section, click on "save changes" after you have made your changes and you will have updated your changes.
Are you using the BigSoccer app, Taptalk, or standard browsing? For standard browsing, select the three bars on the upper right, then select the second from left icon (the one that looks a bit like a person/bust). From there, select which area you want to edit. At the bottom of that page/section, click on "save changes" after you have made your changes and you will have updated your profile. For the other two options, @dark knight would probably be better help as I'm not familiar with them.
I am using the browser in my phone. Thank you; your instructions helped me make the changes I wanted to make. (Even though the three-bar icon is located at the upper left, not the upper right.)
Oh, wait. I wanted to change the listing of my favourite club. I found a blank field marked "club", and I filled it in. But now I see that my posts are showing both the original and current clubs. The current club just shows under my name, while the previous club shows after the label "Club". How can I make it so that NYCFC shows after the label "Club"?
Make sure you are logged in and then go here: https://www.bigsoccer.com/account/ You can make updates and changes there. Note that some of these changes will require the desktop version of the site to complete.
Thanks for responding. I've been to that page; the instructions of @soccernutter led me there. It was there that I updated my contact information and also added mention of NYCFC. This time I went there, still on my phone's browser, and requested the desktop site. But (please pardon my denseness) I'm afraid I still cannot see how to make it say "Club: NYCFC" where it currently says "Club: Chelsea F.C.". I will next be at a computer on Tuesday. Should I expect to be able to make this change then?
I feel kind of stupid, that perhaps I am missing something obvious. But, even on a computer, I don't see how to change that setting that now says "Chelsea F.C.". I go to my profile page and change the personal details. Yet my posting still shows "Club: Chelsea F.C." So, what am I doing wrong? (Besides taking up your time.)
Clubs used to have to be selected from a drop-down menu, which no longer exists, but I think it still matters. My guess is that if you choose clubs that were in the drop-down menu like Manchester United, the club appears in both places. If you start with Chelsea (which I'm assuming you did), and change to NYCFC, who didn't exist when the drop-down menu was created, it changes on the line above your join date but not on the line that starts with "club." I'm not saying that's how it should be. I'm just saying my hypothesis about the problem. My guess is that nothing can be done on a computer or phone until BigSoccer changes something on their end.
By mobile browsing, that drop down is not present. Hence my tagging @Janet H I stand corrected - that option does not exist anywhere.
@Janet H (sorry to tag you twice), the issue is that there is nothing to change the "Club" display. What is possible is to change that space above the join date. Here is what I did: Started with nothing between join date and "Staff Member." This was confirmed by the blank space in my profile: So I added a team, "Galaxy" Saved Changes at the bottom, and refreshed on a thread displaying my profile, and saw: And now I see "Galaxy" in the space between join date and "Staff Member," an area that had been previously blank. Then, to make sure I was being correct, I blanked out the Favorite Club box: And then refreshed on a thread displaying my profile: No where in my profile (and likely for everybody) the possibility to change "Club." Please add this option.
Bump: The minor issue I am having is that when you look at my profile information where it shows my club as Boca Juniors the club badge to the left is for Barca. It appears to be the same issue in post #12 from EvanJ in which he is a ManU fan but his also shows the Barca badge. How can we fix this?
I have to leave mine blank or just keep my existing club (Atlético Madrid) because my team doesn't change at all. I type in "Club Tijuana" but my club will not change from "Atlético Madrid". I can only change it to a club that's listed, and most Liga MX and MLS clubs are not listed. I tried "LAFC" as well. What a bummer.
That is odd, when I posted both yours and my club badges were showing Barca. Both are clearly back to normal.
