SOLVED! "Country you live in" selection not saving

Hi all,

Notice many forum members have their country's flag showing below their username.

I tried to select my country (Australia), yes after I hit save changes, nothing happens.

No flag, and if I return to the "Edit Your Details" page, the selection is blank again.

EDIT: Workaround provided below, update in the mobile app and it sticks!

Any thoughts on what the issue might be?

Same thing happens to me. I would love to display my flag, but when I select the United States and then go to check, nothing is there and just like you, when I go back to where I selected it, it is blank.

I had it selected and my flag displayed for years, then it disappeared, and trying to add it back does nothing. Must be a glitch.

Now you say it I feel like I used to have a flag years ago too.
