   Hi. I have a WordPress hosted at http://www.b18ch1ck.com and found the Ali Han Neon theme, which I love. There is one problem though. The bottom menu has "About", "Recent Comments" and "Recent Posts".

   On my blog, under "About", it said Go to admin panel > Users > Your Profile > About Yourself > Biographical Info > Fill is text area > and click: Update Profile button. note:only for admin OR click here(..or for "user ID : 1") .

   I did that and it did not reflect a change. I even cleared my cache and refreshed the site, with no luck still. I decided to Google the term Go to admin panel > Users > Your Profile > About Yourself > Biographical Info > Fill is text area > and click: Update Profile button. note:only for admin OR click here(..or for "user ID : 1") and most blogs that came up were using the Ali Han Neon theme. The ones that were no longer using it have changed their theme, I presume. How could I go about fixing this? Is there even a way? Thanks for your time, everybody!

   Thanks Again,
   Ami

   Ok, folks. I went to:

   Appearance > Editor > Templates > Footer

   I found the offending code - Go to admin panel > Users > Your Profile > About Yourself > Biographical Info > Fill is text area > and click: Update Profile button. note:only for admin OR click here(..or for "user ID : 1") - hiding within an if/else statement and just replaced it with B18Ch1ck.com

   AND upon looking into it further, the REAL offender here was the user_id. I was the 2nd user ID in my WordPress account, and this theme was pulling from the first WordPress account's info. Aha. :)

   <td valign="top"><h3>About</h3>
   <?php $authorTR = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT meta_value FROM $wpdb->usermeta WHERE user_id=1 and meta_key='description'"); if ( !empty($authorTR) ) { echo $authorTR; }else{ echo "B18Ch1ck.com "; } ?></td>

   I changed it to user-id=2 and it worked perfectly.
