How to change your username

  • I have followed the instructions to change my user name, including logging out and back in, waiting hours and days and trying again.  The username on the main GW website has changed, but when I go to the forum, it remains unchanged. How do I contact admin or someone to assist with this please?

    Hi @skye_mck ... I’ve reported your query to the Moderators. Hopefully they’ll get a chance to look at it for you before long 
    As for many others at the moment, working conditions are not as usual.

  • @Dovefromabove- thanks very much.

  • Exit your account and gointo the site via the Gardeners’World.com logo at top left, then into your account and Settings.

    Change your details and Save and log out again. 

    Now you can go back into the site in the usual way ... that should have done it. 🤞 
    Hi Dove, thank you for taking the time to reply. Still no joy, sorry. Yes I found the new logging in system and setup, however there were no options on adding location, please see screen grab attached? Jack

    For adding your location you click on the cog wheel top right of this page. It’s saying forbidden but sometimes works, mine saying that at the moment. Keep trying.

    @Jack1974 - if you're on this page [for posting] there should be a black section at the top with your name, and avatar. If you click on that, there should be all the options for adding details. Try that and see if it works  :)
      
    You can also access that just by clicking on your avatar beside your post.

    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    It’s still not working,  maybe the mods will sort it out soon, it’s always done that, just doesn’t usually last for so long.

  • I enquired last week about a moderator assisting me with a name change, and checking when someone might be able to assist with this? I have gone through the steps detailed, including logging out, waiting a few days etc and still my original name shows up. Many thanks.

    You could try sending a private message to @Daniel Haynes

  • Thanks Lyn.  I did private message Daniel 2 weeks ago, and initially reported the issue before that, and still not heard from anyone from admin/moderators.  I realise things are slower at the moment, but surely 3 weeks is a bit long to get any assistance?

    Does anyone have any other contact details or ways to contact admin or a moderator?
