When creating a profile after updating your location field, Twitter, and GitHub links on all profiles, they do not get copied over to the new account, though a website link (and everything else) does.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Edit your Location, Twitter, and GitHub fields to include anything legit.
  2. Create a profile on a Stack Exchange account on which you hadn't been signed in before.
  3. Notice the mentioned fields not appearing in your new profile.

    Well, this combines two older bug reports, but it's all from same source and a fix will be for all of them, if and when it will be done. Commented Nov 26 at 17:58
  • They're different. My one is for creating new profiles, but your dupes are for just the all communities button. Commented Nov 26 at 18:06

    Different symptom of same bug: the new profile process copy the profile in the same way as the "copy to all communities" as far as I can tell. If you can prove otherwise (e.g. a field that is updated in one but not the other), I'll happily reopen. :) Commented Nov 26 at 18:09
  • @ShadowWizard OK, let me test it now. Commented Nov 27 at 6:22
