I think that thing that was under everyone's name that let everyone know their USDA zones and other information was really neat and I think it actually helps others to answer questions that people ask about growing and such easier. I miss it.

unless I am mistaken I don't see that USDA zone info and all that other neat-o info that helps out.

I don't Know, I just think it makes it easier to address someone's question when you know that kind of pertinate information.

OK, you must be referring to the User CP. Sorry, an oversight on my part. I'll have to manually place that option in myself. I'll take care of it.

The USDA field is now on the User CP.
I have also made the Location field a mandatory entry for everyone who wishes to register on the site. Normally this would certainly not be a required field on most forum sites but I feel that a bonsai site is an exception. Hopefully this will put an end to that never ending question, "Where do you live"?

Is there any way to make that USDA field show under the avatar just like the location?

Phil · 12-31-2007, 12:18 PM

Hmm...that's odd! I have the field set but it's not showing. Something else I'll have to look into. Yet another item on my TTD list. Thanks for making me aware of it Chris.
