In the preferences page there is a box for “EA Profile Link.” How does it work? That is, how do other users get from my username to the profile? I linked my LessWrong profile but it doesn’t seem to have any effect...
Hey Squark, there’s a guide to using it (and other features of the forum) at http://bit.ly/1OHRd1X . As it explains, the effect is that you get a little
link to it next to your username when you comment or post.
When you tried entering your LessWrong profile you should have got the warning below about other links not working. If that didn’t happen, can you tell me what browser and OS (Mac, Linux, etc.) you’re using? Thanks!
As the help text below it says, that’s specifically for EA Profiles (which are the profiles at that link). It’ll only accept a link to one of those; if you don’t already have one, you should create one!
