Cannot edit my forum profile (Jabber required?)
Whenever I try to edit these fields – https://www.calcudoku.org/bb3/ucp.php?i ... ofile_info (website, location, Facebook, etc) – I get the following warning:
The Jabber account name you entered is too short.
The name you entered is not a valid Jabber account name.
There isn't even such a field on screen. Must be hidden and required and currently empty, otherwise why can't my changes be saved?

Thanks for reporting, it probably is a permissions issue
(something that did not transfer correctly to the new forum), will fix..

edit: this should work again now, please let me know

Yes, it does, many thanks!
However, now I cannot figure out the correct format for the YouTube field [confused]

One particular AI bot ("grok") says the format is just the handle.

So for the Calcudoku channel (https://www.youtube.com/calcudoku), I'd just enter "@calcudoku"

(will try that out)

Oh, true. I didn't think of the @ sign. Thanks a lot!
