It does work, it just doesn't notify you of the update. Seems counter intuitive to the user experience, I'll let the IPB overlords know.

Could be because I just logged in, lol.

Anyway, not showing the ONLINE green icon for me on my profile, but it seems like others can...?

Works for me. Check your profile to make sure you don't have any unneeded privacy settings set.

I checked the board settings, there's nothing that prevents online status from being seen, and that's how you looks like for me.

Are any other members experiencing this problem as well?

I just spoke to another member and it seems to be only me. I'll try clearing cache and maybe cookies.

I just overrode your permissions, see if stuff works for you now. There's no option to disable emoticons for individuals or even groups.

Emoticons work now, just not the online/offline icon. Hmm... doesn't really matter, though. :D
I can always tell if I'm online or not... unless I'm sleepesurfing...

Ilya, you were totally right when you said that a certain someone will start reporting all the little bugs :O! -erhemmACertainMr.Clementineahem-

Anyway, I'm not sure if it's just me but I try logging in on the mainpage and it doesn't work. However, when I login on the forum and go to the main page; all is good.

Tried changing my signature like so:

[center][img]insert img url here [/img][/center]
[align=left (or whatever the bbcode is)] Insert random text here [/align]


"Insert random text here" will be automatically changed to center.

Edit: Not sure if this is on your end or not, but the image resizing option in signatures doesn't work. :c

You can always resize manually, it could be the javascript, I've seen a few problems with the editor - not sure how I can fix it though since it is IPB's job.
Your signature is aligned left though, seems that some of it worked.

I changed it back to left when i realized that it looks totally bad in center.
