Connect your forum account with TrackMania

Hello world,

We are introducing a new feature for you: connect your forum account with TrackMania so that you can easily display information such as Nickname, Path, Solo ranking and Multi-player ranking.

To share your TrackMania information on your profile, simply go to your profile edition page and click on the TrackMania Link Account button at the bottom. Then follow the instructions. It should be pretty straight forward.

Check out the result for me at the right of this post ;)

While following the instructions, you will also discover the new Web site we’re introducing today: the Player Home for TrackMania Forever. Think of it as a social-oriented Player Page. For now it obviously does not have many features, but you can check it out at http://home.trackmania.com.

In the forthcoming days, we will add this feature to TM-Forum too. In the future, we hope to offer that feature to community websites too.

As always, your feedback is very much appreciated.

I'm really sorry, but apparently I'm to stupid today to find that button ;)
I changed the language to English and even to French, but the button won't appear for me.

Have I been on a wrong page? I thought I had looked everywhere, but I'm not sure...

EDIT: Nevermind, you are right, we'll fixed that.
EDIT2: It's been fixed, you should see it now.

On this page: http://forum.maniaplanet.com/ucp.php?i=172
At the bottom, just below "Manialink, enter your manialink address"
You should see a label "Ingame information: Click on the button to link your TM account" with a big white button.
Can you see it?

Nice feature :)
Is there any API to use it with other pages too?

//edit: I found an error: I've got a heart-symbol in my ingame-nickname like this: Chris92 <3
When I allow home.trackmania.com to link my nickname to the forums, the page cant load anymore, it ends in an XML-Error... Can you fix this? ^^ Think its because of the < thing
