Can't Change Characters on Forums

And I also can’t post in guild recruitment.

Have you tried logging out and back into the forums?

Do you have an active subscription to post? Is this behavior consistent across multiple browsers or just one?

Thanks for the quick reply!

I have not tried those and will do so now and I’m afraid to open up Internet Explorer as it is an evil, evil creature.

YAY! You’re awesome friend! Thanks! That worked! Guess it was cause I resubbed recently and the account needed a refresh! All is well!

Given the recent move of the character and the fact the web is still showing the old info, updating may have something to do with it.

You are trying to change to another character on THIS license, yes? One that has been logged into recently? You have to have a funded license to post in most of the WoW forums. If the website hasn’t updated yet, it will act as though the license isn’t funded until it does update. Also, any characters on your other licenses wouldn’t be accessible through this one - nor are any of those currently funded.

Sometimes just posting here can force an update, you might want to sign completely out of the website - game and launcher, then relog in, see if that forces a change.

trying this

I am unable to change my character on the forums also. I did a name change 2 or 3 days ago and it is still showing my character with it’s old name. When I try to change character it just gets stuck on the loading page showing an indefinite loop of the blizzard loading icon…

That is most likely an update issue, Jukebotx. Not a ton you can do to force it. Sometimes changing your password might but it’s not sure fire.

Trying this…

I’ve done all of the above suggestions. I’m still seeing only 3 characters as an option but have many more than that I should be able to choose from. Each of these three characters are from WOW Classic. No options for Retail

I had to log in and out of the forums quite a few times to get my available posting characters to update when the forums first came out. Seem to just add them in drips and dribbles.
