Aug 31, 2023 at 2:34 comment added Mentalist @user67275 I agree, the wording could be made more clear. Like, what is the scope of "changes"? Instead of "changes", something like "modified fields" would have spared me some confusion and fret.

Mar 22, 2023 at 2:38 comment added user67275 The answer was a bit unclear at first, but it now solves my concern after editing. If I change only the 'Location' field and do not change the 'About me' section, and then click 'Save and copy changes to all public communities', then it changes only the 'Location' field.

Mar 21, 2023 at 12:56 comment added αλεχολυτ @Marijn that's exactly what can will be achieved on step 1 from my answer. If they need to update only location, just modify only location (on any profile) and press "Save and copy CHANGES to all public communities". All the rest fields will be intact.
Mar 21, 2023 at 10:41 comment added Marijn I think the situation that prompted this question is a user that has customized the About Me on all their sites, for example on SO the About Me is "I like programming", on Money.SE they put "I like money", on Academia.SE it is "I like studying" etc., and they don't want to redo/copy paste all of those when only changing the location.

Clarify that only changes will be spread to all communities on step one.

Mar 21, 2023 at 6:29 comment added αλεχολυτ @starball it's easy to copy it to clipboard or other text editor, revert changes and next do what I suggested in the post. Not an issue at all.
Mar 21, 2023 at 6:21 comment added starball and what if you already have changes to your about me that are different than other sites that you don't want to apply to all other sites?
