Interests field is auto-filling a username

Hey everyone,

Here's a minor issue that's come up, I think since installtion, but didn't notice until now. I'm using version 2.20.10. Anytime I call up a user's info through the admin panel the user's Interests field is automatically filled with my username.

I checked the database via phpmyadmin and didn't see any default entry in the user_interests. Has anyone seen this come up before? I didn't find any related posts in the search so I figured it was a pretty unique occurrence. It's not a big deal, but a minor issue I'd like to remove if someone has an idea.

Your browser settings might be autocompleting??

I had thought of that. I was using a new installation of Firefox, and was wondering what the link to the Interests field would be in the auto-complete......so I decided to try it in IE, and the field wasn't filled. Thanks for reminding me of that. I stay away from IE so much, it didn't click to try it with that and see what happened. Smile

Happy I could voice that thought for you. Wink

If you have not modified the forum files or nuke_bbusers table then this has to be a browser issue but it could be confirmed by checking in that table to see what is actually in that field.

Yeah, no modifications. Like I said, it didn't come up in IE so it must be a browser issue. I find it happening now in all the computers I use Firefox on...not just the one I reported it from earlier.

I don't know what the issue is with Firefox...but it only happens on Firefox PC's. Go figure! Bang Head
