Title: Changing Forum Names
Post by: Wyldercat on September 19, 2014, 07:57:07 pm
Well, lately I've been trying to change my forum name to Nevica, but it isn't working. I logged in, went to User Details and replaced my current name with Nevica in the Your Name: box, but when I click save, it didn't change anything. Am I doing something wrong?

Try this:

1. Go to yer "Profile"
2. Click on "Account Related Settings"
3. Ye'll see a box beside the text "Name" (underneath yer Username) where ye' can type in yer new display name ye' wish to have here
4. Then type in yer password at the bottom, save changes, 'n yer display name should change accordingly

My apologies if my rough walkthrough doesn't quite make much sense. I do admit I can be pretty horrid at explanations.

I got stuck on this once, what you do is go to your profile and click on "account related settings" and I'm pretty sure that's where you change your name :3

Edit: This is the second time I've been ninja'd by someone ;-;

It may be taken. Go to profile, account related settings, change your name and check if it's available. If not, a message in red will say that it is already in use by someone else.
Also, you might have put the wrong password in to change it.
