See screenshot. I don't want to eliminate the old ning signup profile questions for all my imported members. I'm wanting to know if there is a way for me to EDIT the answers of a specific member- they are asking me if they can change/edit what they had written in about themselves long ago on Ning when they joined. I know maybe THEY cannot edit this...but is there a place where *I* can edit it for them, to update it to reflect changes over time that they want updated? (NOT their location, which we know how to adjust)

See the stuff I've circled in red, that shows publicly on their profile page. Thanks

Your members should be able to modify their answers themselves as all these user fields are enabled for their quota.
If they go to their User Account form they should see them.

Interesting, Paul-
When I'm logged in as a regular member, I can get to those answers and edit them, under my 'Account' tab in Settings.
But as Admin Strumelia, I don't get those fields at all in my Account Tab....I only get the secret security questions/answers there. but not the ones showing on my own profile in the screenshot. Hence my confusion. Odd.

But at least I can now tell the member where they can go to edit theirs. Thanks

Click on the Form Designer button when in your User Account form and add the admin quota to the Display Groups, or just select 'Normal Users' so that all logged in users see the fields.

D'OHHH... I think I knew that! ...once long ago....

If my damn cat hadn't woken me up all night long, I might have had the brain clarity to figure this out today by myself. grrr....

Thanks paul, no wonder I couldn't find it! (duh)
