Can't hide or edit certain things?

    I want to hide my Location from showing up along with my posts, but can't find the option to either edit or hide it anywhere.

    EDIT: Sometimes it will show up on posts, and other times it doesn't show up at all. It's not showing up on this initial post as far as I can see.

    It is no longer possible to see or edit your location so it doesn't appear publicly on your posts any more. This feature was hidden not long after GDPR came into effect.

    Oh, I gotcha! So does it only show up for me and mods? I know one of them could tell me my location when I asked them about it in a PM earlier.

    Only Admins and Boards staff should still be able to see it but I'll have to check that. Even you shouldn't be able to see it any more so if you do see it on a post of yours or on your profile, please send me a screenshot. Also if you would like us to delete it for you, we can do that.
