Hi Scott.

Unfortunately your original thread is locked, therefore i have to open a new one.

Your description is fine, it is so easy, at least in my own portal and i think in all the other portals as well. But not here.....

Reason: when clicking on "Edit Profile" i come to the dialog Manage Profile and when i click here on "Manage Profile" the page jumps back to "My Profile".
So it would be easy, if it would be possible.....

Cheers

Kai

Scott's post is somewhat out of date since the actual control used changed (I wrote a custom one previously used, the new one is the one provided by the core). I am not sure where exactly you are trying to 'manage' your profile from. The best way to manage your profile is to go to your profile page by clicking your display name in the skin (not the forum) towards the upper right hand corner of the site (under the search box). Next, click "Edit Profile" on that page and then click the next "Manage Profile" link on that page. After that, you have to scroll to the bottom, find the "Photo" field, select the last "My Folder" in the drop down (It's the last folder in that list), then upload the file and then save the file. 

Now, that said, I don't find managing a profile very usable at all and feel it needs lots of work usability wise (the number of steps I outlined above is too many). Personally, I think the following enhancements should be logged for future updates:

• Allow a way to link directly to the core profile's "Manage Profile" - I could then add a link under the Forum's My Settings for this. You could then click update, and if done properly, be returned to where you were. 
• The user folder drop down should automatically have "My Folder" selected. 
• Re-visit how the edit profile page is generated, it currently looks very bad in Chrome and setting a profile image property visibility is not fully possible. It would also benefit from some template capability here.

Kai, I just confirmed the issue you are having with the "Manage Profile" link click in the edit profile section. It appears to affect any user with a UserID about 33k or greater. Fortunately, I have already fixed the bug for DNN 5.4.2 (it's a core bug, it will have to get fixed on here after 5.4.2 is ready and we can upgrade this site). Details about the bug can be found here: http://support.dotnetnuke.com/issue/V....
