How do I change my settings?

You can change your account settings by clicking on your username in the top right corner of the vBulletin site. This will provide a dropdown menu. From here select "User Settings".

On the settings page, you will see up to five tabs. Profile, Settings, Privacy, Notifications and Subscriptions. These are:

  • Profile - This is the public information that is shown to everyone. You can control who sees your information on the Privacy tab.
  • Account - This tab contains the settings for your account and allows you some control over how things are presented to you on the system.
  • Privacy - This allows you to control who has access to your information.
  • Notifications - This tab controls how you are notified of new content you are interested in.
  • Subscriptions - If subscriptions are available for purchase, they will be managed here. You can purchase new subscriptions or cancel existing ones. Subscriptions can provide additional permissions, enhanced posting rights or simply be a way of supporting the site.

There may be additional tabs depending on your permissions and site offerings.
