Other User's Signature Links Not Working

Hello,

When I look at the signature of another user on a forum discussion, it does not link to their personal page, but rather to whatever forum they are participating in. A good example is this comment Allen posted in this community. Re: Microsoft Tech Community Achievements / Badges - Microsoft Community Hub

In the screenshot, you can see hovering over his link shows it directing to the same discussion he is commenting on. Don't believe this is intended behavior.


For troubleshooting reference, my personal link should direct you to my LinkedIn.

Thank you,

      Confirming this is working for me as well.

      Other user names are displaying (and they look good), and their page URLs are working now. 
      Really appreciate the team's effort here!

      Hi, Allen !

      I wasn't able to replicate what you're seeing on my end. To test it, I:
      -Tested as is in multiple threads (not just this one), no change
      -Used the force refresh login link, no change
      -Tried in a private browser, no change 
      -Tried using the force refresh login link in a private browser, no change

      Any idea how to get it to match your end?

      Allen  Hi!

      Since implementing a signature to each post still doesn't work properly and is difficult to implement - then I suggest removing this unnecessary add-on...

        I've seen feedback from a few Microsoft Certified Trainers that they like the feature, and it works better in that community where we are often looking at eachothers profiles. 

        I definitely wouldn't want the feature to go away!

    Yes, the button synchronization does not work properly ; I confirm, I noticed it already in September.

    There should be a label ( Error )

    This new feature will definitely be improved 🙂

      Thanks for confirming, A1!
      I tried to add the label Error but it doesn't appear to be an option. I got a message that this label does not exist.
