mrkstvns Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 scouting.org has an ancient email address for me in my account settings. I'd love to change it, but there doesn't seem to be any way I can. Does anyone know how to edit an email address for my.scouting??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjlash Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Looks like you'll need to have access to the "Member Manager" for your unit or district, then you can drill down and edit it. The unit key 3 and the commissioners have access. Dont know if an individual has access to their own record or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If BSA wants to make updating my own data a royal PITA, then fine, they can keep sending messages into a black hole. Works for me!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah - that makes much more sense. Once on your dashboard, the "my profile" is under the "my training" menu. Thanks @malraux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That works!! Thank you, malraux. I am a happy camper. Amused too now that I see that the site has a record of old emails I used back when my son was a mere Bobcat...

I discovered that they still have my bsa member id number from when I was a scout in the mid-90s. Don't think they'll have an email associated with it, from back then, but I wonder if the prodigy email is in there somewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrkstvns Posted February 8, 2019 Author Share Posted February 8, 2019 BTW: I did try to use the "Help Manual" button before posting here. Doesn't work for me. It downloads a bizarrely named file with no file name extension, so Windows doesn't associate it to an application. Tried choosing an application and selecting Adobe Acrobat, which tells me the file is not a PDF, and then aborts. Wonder why BSA doesn't provide a real help application in a functional form. Good thing their business is scouting and not software or IT!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It opens as a pdf in safari on mac for me. It doesn't include what you needed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
