How to change name?

Unread post by Marshall Wilson »

I logged in as wilsonbuilt, but is there a way to use a different name "Marshall Wilson" as the name that will show up on my posts?

I didn't know if I could do it or not, but it looks like I can do that. I probably won't do that for everybody, and certainly not further down the road.

@matt
That was one of the things that I had requested in the other topic where you wanted suggestions. I was wondering if there was a "display name" box that we could fill out that would show the name we want to appear instead of our log in ID.

Dan, I don't see a way to have separate names for login and screen. I've seen functionality you're talking about elsewhere, but not here. I'll keep my eyes open.

Ok, that was funny. Not sure how much power it is, but it's a lot of shorts and sandals. ;;
