I have a Pro account but can't find myself when searching on IMDb
I have a pro account and am listed as Kate Duffy VI. However, when I search my name on IMDb, I cannot find myself, even if I type in the roman numerals . The only way I can find my page is if I search a film I'm credited in and then click on myself.
Is there a setting I'm missing or are there just too many Kate Duffys, and mine now won't come up when searched?
Thank you!

Kate: I think I have figured out the problem. When you do a search for your name (resulting in a page like https://www.imdb.com/find?q=kate+duffy), in the right-hand rail, under "Advanced Search", there will be a link that says "Enable adult titles/names in your searches." If you click "Enable", your name should show up in a search among the other Kate Duffys.
However, this raises the question as to why your name would be classified as an "adult" name since your films appear to be in the mainstream rather than adult genre. I noticed that one of your films, Good Time (2021), is listed with the following genres:
Short | Adult | Comedy | Drama | Family | Mystery | Romance
I have no idea what genre(s) this film actually is in, but I know they can't all be right, because a film can't be in both the Adult and Family genres.
I recommend that you submit corrections to Good Time to delete any inappropriate genres. In particular, if the film is not in the Adult genre, please make sure to delete that one. If the film is no longer classified as an Adult film, presumably your name will be removed from the classification of "adult" names and thus be able to show up in a search without needing adult names/titles to be enabled. (And if that doesn't work, please make sure to come back here and ask again.)
I hope this helps. Good luck!
