Hi,

My user preferences are not getting saved. It's unlikely that it's a browser refresh problem, because I don't see any changes occurring in the "user" table in the DB after saving. This happens with both the admin user and another user. Both also have user_rights: sysop,bureaucrat

Manually changing a user's record, in the DB, does show up in the browser, when it is refreshed.

This is a first time installation, so I don't think this ever worked after I installed. In the DB, I'm using the 'root' user with no password, because that is the only thing that works. So it is unlikely that it is a DB user permission problem. Other things seem to be working as expected (page creating, editing, etc).

For details about my install process and versions, see my earlier post:
