Profile Modifications
« on: June 19, 2010, 12:33:37 AM »
I have edited the cable provider, channel number, and WxStar ID number area of the profile fields. Everyone needs to go into their profile and edit their entires. Note that for your ID number, you must omit the zeros, as I have put a 5-character limit on the field (i.e. 22438, not 022438). Also, I have provided a list of cable providers to give the area a more uniform look. Should your provider not be listed, please post here and let me know and I will add it.

If you do not receive TWC|HD or Weatherscan, please leave the fields blank, do not enter N/A.

Questions and comments are welcomed.

Just a note - I see a few people edited their info, but their cable provider is set to Blue Ridge Communications (the default selection). That area is a radio button area, you must chose the button next to your provider (i.e. if your cable co is Comcast, select the circle next to Comcast).

Martin was able to figure out how to have no default selected, that way the area will be blank until you chose your provider. Thanks Martin!

FYI - just added a field for HD WxStar ID # for when it becomes widely available, therefore I have renamed the former WxStar ID# to "SD WxStar ID #"

Could you please add "Satellite" as an option to WxStar fields? (sorry if I'm being too picky lol)

Just a note, if you don't have Weatherscan or TWC|HD, I'm asking you leave those fields blank. Please don't enter N/A. If you currently have N/A in one of the fields, please go in and delete it. Thanks!

I know this isn't a popular option, but I'm one of few users who see two Intellistar units pretty much daily. Could you make it so that I can enter in both channel numbers I see it on and both IDs (either like I have had it (meaning I enter two things in one line), or through two fields)?

Also, I'm sure many of us who have TWC in both SD and HD will have both the Intellistar and the HD STAR, so maybe for the future, we could be able to select two options instead of just one?

From your house you have 1 STAR like everyone else. The HD STAR is part of the Intellistar family and posting the HD ID would clearly indicate you have the Intellistar2

I can't change it every last time I go back and forth. I have two separate homes. I don't see why it's such a big deal to just make it so that I can enter in two fields.
