Hey everyone,
As the title says, I’m unable to change what character it shows on my profile. When I click the “change character” button the battle.net logo spins around infinitely and nothing happens. Then, when I click on the profile button it takes me to the armory but i get the “something’s not right” splash page.
I think it has to do with the fact that I deleted the toon “aladorae” that might have glitched things out.
Would love to be able to fix this so I can put my main toon as my avatar.
Thanks!

Also getting this same thing, tried clearing cache ect.
EDIT: Completely logging out and back in fixed it immediately.

Hey Capital thank you for that suggestion! That worked for me too!
But it also reset all of my activity so i cant see the posts i’ve commented on?
Is that normal when switching characters on the forum?
Sorry long time wow player but never really spent any time on the fourms.

Each character on the forum shares almost nothing with other characters in your account. There’s almost as little connection as if they were someone else’s characters.
That’s because the forum software is basically a third-party software package called Discourse which isn’t intimately connected to the Blizzard backside systems and doesn’t really understand “alts.” So posting history, replies, ignore lists, trust level, and the like are maintained on a character by character basis.
For now, I recommend picking a single “forum character” unless you enjoy having forum state scattered over many toons.

ooooooo thanks for the really detailed response!! I always love learning about the backend software stuff that supports the game!
And thanks for the clarifcation about how toons work on the forum too!
Appreciate it!
Also, if you make a new character with the same name and realm as the deleted character, the new character will pick up the old characters posting history.
