How to edit Meet our Members 2

Reusing this system again after a break of a couple of years.

How do I update the member roles. Trying to do this in member management, and even though I save after each change / refresh the screen, and it looks as if the changes have taken place, when I log back in, all the old settings have been restored. All I am trying to do is edit the role, not anybody's profile info.

How do I sort this out?

OK - so it seems to be the outgoing President. I get this when I try to make him IPP :

You have errors in your form below. Please scroll down and correct the following:
Invalid/Non-functioning E-mail:

The thing is - that email works - it's a local company - but it seems that your validation is blocking me from updating him to his new role. Which means the incoming President doesn't get registered ... We'll find a workaround, but a simple check is having unintended consequences ...

Who is "him", The President showing right now is femaile

Jeff Walters: Please do not hijack other users' threads. It creates confusion and makes the original poster get all of your replies (more confusion)

Also, we really need your club number.

'Don't hijack a thread??'
This says Meet Our Members - and I couldn't update our member list / their specific roles. So - in my mind - it's related (& yes - I am in IT myself - it all depends how narrowly you define a topic ... )

Club #4125.
I corrected the role allocation - removed the email address from the outgoing President, changed his role to IPP, and was able to update the role of the incoming President.
But now I cannot add the IPP's email address back again - so if we use FTH for broadcast messages, he won't see them. The email is valid in South Africa / he & I are able to send emails back & forth.
Surely a warning message to check, with an option to override is more appropriate than a hard failure to update?

You will have to tell us the error and provide the email address so we can see what is happening.
