Click on <u>view your profile</u>, click on <u>edit </u>and you'll see a dropdown box with your current user name and some variations on your real name. Change your real name to some new thing, save your amended profile and then edit it again. You're now able to change your user name to various combinations of whatever is in the 'real name' fields. That's what I just did. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12066&page=2#post-140495 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 09:50:34 +0000 fimm 140495@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I had a look and couldn't see how to change names.
