Does anybody know how I can change my user name?
Have looked in my account but can't see how to do it.
Thanks for any advice,
Cath

It looks as if The Team has listened to the many complaint about people who keep changing their names. I had hoped to simplify mine. I usually keep Huia in it, but it looks as if I am now stuck with Huiathebird.

You can still change your Community Name (Board Name) - restrictions re use of spaces etc still apply, but the option is no longer under "My Account"

Hover over Community, then click on Board summary Scroll right down to the bottom of the page to the section called Community Settings.
