How To Set User Name?
Mark Bielecki
I've been away from groups.io and just returned with a new group.
My apologies if this question has already been answered, I did do some searching but couldn't find an answer. When I joined groups.io back when it started I was given an option to choose a User Name. A new member to my new group wishes to have a User Name, but on his Subscription/Group Profile tab it reads "User Name Not Set" and there is no obvious place to set a User Name. It's probably staring us in the face, but I've looked all over the place, he's looked all over the place, neither of us can find the location to set his User Name.?? Can somebody point out where to go to add or change a User Name in a member's group profile? Thanks in advance for your help! Mark Bielecki |
Mark,
A new member to my new group wishes to have a User Name, but on hisThere are two names the member might wish to set. The User name is part of the person's Groups.io account, and is in common with all of that person's group subscriptions. That's why it isn't settable from a single group's Subscription page. To set it select "Account" from the menu that drops down from your name, on the right of the blue logo bar at the top of all pages. Select the "Identity" page, then edit your Account Profile (the topmost section). The User Name entry field is preceded by an "@" sign to signify that setting it creates a link to your group profile. For example: /g/GroupManagersForum/profile/@Shal The Display name is part of each group Subscription, and can be set from the member's group profile. It has a default value taken from the member's account (accessed as above). Shal |
