Username Guidelines + How to change your community username

Hello, community!

As long as you're signed in, you can now change your own username on the Community.

 

How, you ask?

Click the user avatar on the header banner => select "My Profile" from the drop-down => Click the edit icon on the top right corner of your current screen name => Enter your new name and submit!


Please keep these guidelines in mind:

  1. It can contain letters (a-z), numbers (0-9), periods (.), underscore (_), and dash (-).

  2. It shouldn't contain:
    - Private information (PII) such as your email address
    - Symbols apart from the ones stated above. For example @&"=`'
    - A sequence of the allowed symbols. For example -_Abc_-
    - The word 'Adobe' or any Adobe product

  3. It can't be promotional, for example, a website

  4. It can't be offensive and should comply with our Community Guidelines

Thank you!

Done!
ExperienceLeague is a completely different platform so I can't change it there. I'd suggest posting there to get help with this 🙂

I've changed your username and wanted to PM you about the rest but you don't have PMs enabled.
The only change we can do within the community is the username, anything else needs to be done via the Adobe Account settings. If the changes aren't being saved in your Adobe ID info, please reach out to support directly and they should be able to help.
If the changes are saved on the Adobe ID but they're not populating to the community, unfortunately, this is the issue I mentioned on my initial post, and there's no workaround at this time. Thanks for your patience!

Hello! Please help me to change my username in Adobe Community. I changed my username in Adobe Account, but this change didn't appear in the Adobe Community. I don't know why. What do you think?

Yup, that's the issue I was talking about in my initial post, I'm afraid.
Can you review the guidelines above and let me know what your preferred username is? Thanks!
