Change Username

[Mike]

Hover or click on your username up top and then select account details.

The change username link is on the left side of the screen that loads:




Rules:
You can only change your username once every 30 days
You can only change it up to 2 times

Edit: You can actually just hover over your username and the change username link is in the pop-up box. You have to do this from the website. This function is not available in the app.

I still can't figure out such an option guys

The change username doesn't come up for me, maybe because I just joined today?

Are you on a computer or on mobile? That may have something to do with it, not sure though.

I've tried on both, my screen on the computer is otherwise as shown above but missing the change username option. When I signed up I think my phone autofilled my name or I just spaced on seeing it was username lol but ya, don't usually plan to use my full name on forums but no biggy lol

That's really weird. Maybe there's a certain amount of posts needed to change your username. Mike can help more.

Try it now.

 

[MaticMesaric]

Try it now.

Thank you! I will change it right now

 

[Lucy]

Awesome! I wonder if it's just a matter of logging out then logging back in that triggers the option to change user names.

How do you find a user old name? With folks changing their names recently on a whim it is hard to track who they were....

Just go to their profile and there should e an option that says username change history.
