Hello - is it possible to change my username once registered? When I click Edit Profile, I can't edit that field (but can edit others).

Thanks!

We had a complete overhaul of the forum a few weeks ago and there are a few glitches! I'm sure either Goonerplum or actd can point you in the right direction.

Hi Guys,

I'm not sure it is possible to change a screen name, I had a similar issue a while back so had to start a fresh acount with a different completely new name, you may be able to edit your email address on your existing account to a fresh one meaning you can then use your normal email for the new user name.

Users were able to change user names. It appears to not be an available option when you edit your profile. I will check the global settings for the site tomorrow and report back.

Sorry for any inconvenience guys.

Thanks

Gooner

Ok I have worked out how to change your user name.

On the top menu bar you will see the MY PROFILE button. Select it.
Then select EDIT PROFILE.
And then, bob's your mothers brother, you will be able to change your username. 🙂

Enjoy

Gooner

Thanks but that was the first thing I tried! I can't click into the username field, suggesting it's locked.

...no, it can't be done...it brings up the edit profile page but the line where you would enter another username won't open.
