cschfr21 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Maybe this has been posted somewhere already, but I didn't find it with a cursory glance. Is there somewhere I can change the "banner" photo on my profile? I've seen some profiles with custom photos but haven't found the magic button to change it. Also, I've seen some profiles with various icons under their profile in thread comments, is that customizable? Maybe not because it seems most of them are the Accordance logo, which I'm assuming might be a feature to help differentiate profiles for the "professionals" here.

ukfraser Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Not sure what are referring to banner photos but If you go to your profile and click on badges you get to see some of the icons but these are automatic. Are they what you are referring to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cschfr21 Posted March 1, 2022 Author Share Posted March 1, 2022 Thanks @ukfraser! The badges are cool (and I'm already feeling WAY behind on those, but I'll get caught up some day). I'm actually referring to the Accordance Lamp logo that appears under certain profiles, but after looking at more, I see they're all Accordance/Forum staff, so I'm guessing that's what it's for. As far as the "banner" photo, I'm talking about the green abstract picture in the "background" at the top of my profile page. It's the green shades in the attached photo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R. Mansfield Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I've got an Edit Cover Photo option next to the Edit Profile button. I don't know if that's an admin thing or if others have it, too. Perhaps someone else can let us know if they have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Hall Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I think that let's you update your picture and not the banner like Caleb is talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Mansfield Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 If you look at mine, I've got a cover photo option in the top right corner. It's hard to see because of the image behind it. Let me poke around in the settings to see if this can be turned on for everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabian Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 I guess it is active. In the "About Me" you can upload an image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Mansfield Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 I just turned on the ability for all members to upload a cover photo if you're so inclined. I have no idea if you would have to log out and log back in, refresh, or what. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erhard Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Hi Rick I had a look but did not see a place where you can do this. Do you have a screenshot of yours to see where the location is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Mansfield Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Click on your name in the top right corner, then Profile, and then top right corner again for Cover Photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erhard Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 the top right is Edit Profile then this is what I have - I do not see a cover photo place. Is this the page that you are talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erhard Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Hi Rick That is how I got to the page that I showed, but there I do not have a cover photo option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Mansfield Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 If I click on your picture above, I see your profile page which has an option to change the cover photo at the top right. But since I made the change in settings, you might possibly have to log out and log back in. Perhaps someone else can confirm if you see the option on your page or not.

Erhard Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Rick, I also noticed that on your screenshot, the cover photo is an option, on mine it is not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Mansfield Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Let me know what happens when you log out and log back in. If you still don't see an option, I'll have to look further, but it might take a couple of days as this is not a crucial feature to the Accordance experience 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cschfr21 Posted March 2, 2022 Author Share Posted March 2, 2022 I now have the option to edit the cover photo on my profile. Thanks for adding that! Sorry for the VERY low-priority feature request. 😅 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the VERY low-priority feature request. 😅 I'm glad it's working for you. All I meant by the "low-priority" comment was that I was spending WAY too much time trying to track this down--especially if what I had already done was not working. For me, these are the kinds of tasks best pursued in the evening while watching TV 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually debated whether to ask or just let it be, but I thought maybe I was missing something. Definitely seems like a TV-watching task. Thanks for tracking it down and getting it resolved!
