My profile information on WordPress.org is invisible to others, except registration date. When I am logged in everything becomes visible only for me. So what’s the problem? Thank you.

Hello JD,

I am able to see your basic details just like others’ WP profiles, so I am not sure what exact issue you are facing with your profile.

A screenshot may better help us understand.

Thanks.

Sorry, which profile?

*Drinks coffee*

Nice initials for your display name here. 😉

If you mean this one, that profile is only fully visible to logged in forum users.

Not accidentally either. We get a metric ton of registration spam and it’s all awful. Hiding that is so no one can game the profiles. If someone wants to promote themselves then we have good software for that to help let them do that on their own site. Just not here.

It’s really strange – today can’t see the problem, but whole month till yesterday only “Member since” was visible. Here is the screenshot

I filled profile information at the end of August 2021. I think it appeared because I became a Translation Contributor last weekend.

Thanks for answers and excuse for troubling

Profiles remain hidden until accounts do something of note. Like, make some forum posts, for example.

No real point in showing empty profiles.
