UPDATE 5th May 2023 [b][color=#c0392b]THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN SOLVED, NOT A YAF ERROR![/color][/b] User profile page links are mixed up, and the link for "[b]EditAvatar[/b]" was wrongly replaced by "[b]EditSettings[/b]". Users cannot update their avatars, unless they somehow guess the URL. (This worked in 3.1.12. or just before when I did a lot of user settings changes and testing.)

I cannot reproduce the issue With that version. Also not here in the support forum. There where no changes been made in that version.

Yes! Now, I have received info from another user, who said he also has no problems with this. This user is an account on the same 3.1.13 forum in question. I do have this problem with two different accounts on two different browsers on the same PC, with this 3.1.13 forum installation. I have no idea how to try to debug this. I will try with other accounts, I have like 5 normal ones plus "Admin" and "Host with Admin priveleges". They are also on different web browsers. Will report back if anything is found. [b]EDIT[/b]: I think I found the error! If I select "Modify Avatar" from the top menu, everything is OK. If I select "Edit Profile" from the top menu, and then try to "Modify Avatar" from [b]the left menu[/b], I get edit profile, not edit avatar. (So everything works, only the left menu in Edit Profile section is fiddled-up.) [b]EDIT 2[/b]: on this running instance (on THIS server on yetanotherforum.com), everything is OK. This means something is fiddled-up on my own server. Will have to investigate.

This issue has been solved. It is not a YAF error, but there was "fiddling" with YAF source code. I have always said that this should not be done in an unauthorized way. And there we have it. 🤣 Thanx to @watcha for the help here!
