Hey Spark,
My membership is changing for the first time since the last forum upgrade, and since the old "user cp" section is gone I'm not sure what to do here. I just renewed my membership and signed up for a knifemaker membership. My dealer membership just expired, but I'm still green on the forums. I know that the green membership is more expensive, but I want to be orange!!:D Can ya help me out by pointing me in the right direction or changing my color for me? I can find my active paid subscription list in the settings section but can't see any way to "select" the knifemaker membership.

If there is a simple way for me to do it myself let me know so I don't have to bother you again. Didn't want to bother you because I know you've been really busy lately with the hordes of zombies running around in you neighborhood at hom!:eek:

Thanks buddy!
 
Look under "Settings" between MyProfile and Log Out at the top right corner. That's where the old User CP is now.
 
Top right corner of the page....

Click on Settings.

Left side of page.....

Scroll down to Paid Subscriptions.

Click the tab for knifemaker/craftsman/service provider and save.
 
Yab and Karda,
Thanks for trying to help, but I already figured out how to get to the new "user cp" section. I go to paid subscriptions and see the knifemaker membership listed, but there is no way to click on it or save anything??:confused: I had already checked this out before starting the thread. I don't know why I'm not getting it.....
 
Ok, for the heck of it I tried to log out and log back in. Now my green membership is gone, but I still can't figure out how to get my orange color up and running. I'm just plain old blue now.......
 
No, don't bug Spark. Just go back to Paid Subscriptions and find this paragraph with a dark background:

Available Subcriptions
All subscriptions are covered by the BladeForums.com Subscriber & User Agreement; by proceeding you agree to these terms of service.
(Please note, if you are banned, you forfeit your subscription as a result of your failure to abide by our terms of service. By subscribing, you accept this - no refunds will be issued.)
After you've paid for your subscription REMEMBER TO CHANGE YOUR USERGROUP in the control panel by clicking on the Group Memberships link.
Paypal users can click here to purchase their subscription.
If you are a Non-US Customer or are trying to buy someone else a membership you will not be able to use this automated system. Please click here instead, or use our Paypal option

See where it says CHANGE YOUR USERGROUP? Mouse over it. THAT'S your link. Your KnifeMaker / Craftsman / Service Provider is good to go, you just need to activate the visuals on it.
 
Thanks Esav,
I don't know why that little link was eluding me!! It doesn't pop out, and blends into the paragraph. It's exactly what I was looking for, thanks for the help!
