In the vBulletin version our location (should we choose to enter one) would show up on the left under our name. It was helpful information when trying to reply to someones question, if the person was in the Northeast many of us can recommend a local solution, if it was elsewhere we could recommend something when we know where they live. This feature makes it so we don’t have to keep stating where we are from, when applicable. Is it possible to add a location option to our profiles and make this visible to others?
Also we had the option to have a signature that showed up (automatically if checked off) at the bottom of our posts. Many chose to put their name and contact info so that it is included every time. I can live without it, but it would be nice to have back as well.
Thanks,
Erika

I believe about half way down the page is a box that you can add your signature which will automatically be added to your posts. I don’t think there is any way to add your location yet.
