Editing a display name by moderator
Reid Sayre
Subject: Editing a display name by moderator Date: Wednesday, July 31, 2024 2:02 PM Dear Group_Help, In section 11.2 of the owner's manual, it says: "Owners and moderators can edit the Display Name field in individual members¡¯ records (but be aware that members can change their own display names as mentioned above)." Is there a moderator permission to enable this? We have a few folks that joined via the "+subscribe" direction that left the "display name" field blank. "Owner" can fix it but I haven't figured out how to enable a "moderator" to fix it. Actually, it might be nice to have an option somewhere to require a "display name" for all new members at registration. Reid Sayre |
I THINK Moderators already? have the right to edit display names, simply by clicking on the name in the Members tab,? then going to the Display Name field and typing. However, for Moderators, there is an option near the bottom of the list of Moderator Permissions called Set Moderator Privileges, which will do what you want.

Then you could send a Pending Subscription notice saying what the requirements are.? At minimum, they could include their preferred Display Name in their reply to make it easier to know what to use in their member record.? Then you'd have the option of adding it for them or forcing them to change it before you approve membership. ?

No, that only allows a moderator to set another member to moderator.? To edit Display Names for members, I think a moderator would need Set Member Subscription Options.

"Set Member Subscription Options" did the trick. Thanks! Reid Sayre On Wed, Jul 31, 2024, at 3:13 PM, Duane wrote:
