Hi, In our forum if one click on the avatar of a staged user, he is directed to “you don’t have access to this page”. Is there any setting to resolve this?

What would you like to see here, and who should see it? I think this is working correctly and as I would expect: staged user profiles are not visible to the public or to regular members. They see “Oops! That page doesn’t exist or is private.” This is correct. staged users ARE visible to staff. Th…

I see there’s an email glyph on the user card for staged users now - thank you! But on the user profile page there is no indication yet that the user is staged. Could this be added? See screenshots. [03%20PM] [18%20PM]
