Introduction

A profile

The first box on the profile gives details about the member's account on the forum.

On the left-hand side, the username, the user's user title, and the group image/stars. Below this, the following fields are displayed:

Registration Date: The date the user registered on the forum.
Date of Birth: If set in profile, the date of birth is displayed. However, if the user has only set to show their age in their profile, only the age will be displayed. If the user has set to show both date of birth and age in their profile, both will be displayed. If the user has their birthday set in their profile, but has opted to hide their date of birth and age from all users, this field will not be shown.
Local Time: The current time for the user, based on the Time zone and Daylight Savings Time settings.
Status: The current status of the user. If the user is online, you will also see what the user is currently doing, and the time they were doing it at.

If a user is away, you will see a message saying so, the reason they specified, the time the day the set their status as away, and the return.

On the right-hand side, the member's avatar is shown, full size, if the user has one set.
