Thanks Joffrey
Weirdly, while I can find and edit the email address by clicking on ‘account’, custom fields for me don’t show up when I click ‘profile’. Only the default fields are displayed.
If I then click the ‘Normal’ menu (without selecting any of the drop down options) , some but not all custom user fields sometimes appear (but often don’t).
If the custom fields are showing and I refresh my browser, they disappear, until I click on the ‘Normal’ menu button again.
In particular a field that uses the discourse-multiselect-user-field plugin does not ever appear.
If editing my own user account as administrator, there is no ‘Normal’ menu to click on, but I get a similar temporary effect by clicking on the ‘Expand’ (or ‘Collapse’) button.
I don’t imagine this behavior is deliberate?
A second issue/request is that I think that all these fields should be editable directly from wherever they are displayed to the user or admin - seems unnecessarily labyrinthine and not especially intuitive to disallow this, especially if there are a lot of accounts to manually update, or if user is not very familiar with where settings are buried within the interface.
