    I'm assuming it's coming back, but is "out status" coming back to the profile? It's helpful when giving people advice and certain discussions.

    It is on their profile page (if they have updated it) under information. Unfortunately there are technical limitations for the moment with displaying it by the name on all posts.

    Does anyone know if it will be possible to type the outstatus in (again)? When I changed it I could just choose one of the options they gave me but I would like to be able to type it in by myself cause non of the options are actually fitting my status

    As mentioned, these options should start to appear within the Information tab once individuals have updated their profile for this new platform. :slight_smile:
    Please see here regarding this issue: https://forum.emptyclosets.com/index.php?threads/welcome-to-ec-2-0.457426/page-2#post-6477550

    It's on our to-do list but will require some level of customisation due to XF's limitations. I'm not sure what solutions will be available to us at this point, but it is something that we want to address sooner rather than later.

    sounds good. Not sure if it's on the to do list but you might want to do a find and replace in the database regarding old shortcodes and emoticons. Stuff like old videos and other emoticons aren't showing up correctly. Would take time to execute the SQL, but should be worth it.
