Hi all,

?In our group [email protected] members are required to give their full names.? But this is not working for those responding to the invite.

I see that as moderator I am permitted to edit members names in their profiles.? But I can't figure out how to actually do that.

Thanks, Joe Balestreri

You go to Admin-Members, select a member and change their Display Name.

Hi Sarah,

I hope someone can answer my question of how I can edit member's profiles to add their names.

Many chat groups meet only on-line and I'm? sure you are right.

Ours is a very tight-nit community.? We're mostly form a local region. We meet in person several times per year. It's a private group and member's info is not available out side our group.? We've had an on-line chat group? since 1999 and as far as I know.? All of our functions are open to all members. Members must participate in live Billy events and then be sponsored by an existing member of out chat group before being allowed to join.
We want privacy but not anonymity.

Funny, in my group anything that even looks like a real name is not permitted!
Real names can lead to real trouble.

In my groups we changed the group rules to require full names to eliminate problems with trolls. That kind of behavior flourishes when it can hide it's identity.

Exactly!

Good reminder Dan. I am able to edit members I haven't approved yet but not those who joined through the invite.? I have found no way to do it on their profile so far.? The directions in the owner's manual seen to be for editing my own profile, not my members'

You can't change their profile, only their member information, specifically the Display Name.? Note that you cannot prevent the members from changing it to something else though, so you'd need to stay on top of it.

Thanks Duane,
?Some how a page came up allowing me to add their display name and full given name. I save the link because I don't yet know how the page came up.? I do understand members can change all that and yes, I will have to keep on top of that.? But few of our members have ever gone through the trouble of creating a password or logging in.
