An optional name field has been added to the user profile so that people who wants to can have their first name or nickname displayed on their posts below the avatar, along with the info like number of posts, join date, and happy chirps. This function is redundant for people who are already using their name as their User ID, but helpful for people who are using a less personal name for their ID (like tielfan for example). To use this function, click on the User Control Panel button that's on the lower left corner of the banner. Then click the Profile tab and scroll down to the Name field. Enter the name and hit submit!

What an excellent idea, Carolyn! I was about to PM you to ask if I could change my username but with this option I won't have to. I noticed this in "unanswered posts" and saw how it related to my question. :highfive: Thank you for adding this! I am Barbara913 in another forum but TielLvr in the forums I joined when I first got my tiel.

I like that very much, I have seen it in another forum and I thought it was a neat way to give people a chance to use each other real names AND still have the nickname.
I would like to know if it's possible to change my nickname, since right now it's the same as my real name.

Perfect! Bluekeet is kind of vague to people who don't know me.

Yes, I can change your user ID. Just let me know what you want the new name to be.
