Username Guidelines + How to change your community username

[Sil.C]

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!

I have some somehow gotten two user names. Both have the same email and password. They are jwpotter and john Potter.

Would you please put them into one account. I don't care which youuse. John Potter is the older one.

Thansk you.

Unfortunately, accounts can't be merged. The alternative option is to delete one of them, do you have access to both? Which one would you like me to delete?

Thanks in advance

Someone already has that username, so I've added a point at the end 🙂

Thank you very much for your fast help!

[andy_melcc]

I was in contact with also six different agents on the chat, nobody seemed to be aware of the bug. They referred me to the forum, so I instantly found this post! Awesome!

Would you please change mine to andy_melcc?

Thanks a bunch!

Hello, I need to change my screen name, but your system isn't letting me. Can someone please help with this? Thank you. 

[UX Technologist]

As stated in the first post in this forum, you can ask for a change right here.

Please refer to the guidelines in that post.

[banannieannie]

Sorry, I am new here and had a freak out moment when I discovered that my screen name defaulted to my email address. I'd like to change it to banannieannie if possible. 

[Just Shoot Me]

[m0n1k498]

can my username be changed to m0n1k498 please

[Just Shoot Me]

Just to be clear.

You want your user name changed to m (lowercase) 0 (Zero) n (lowercase) 1 (One) k (lowercase) 498

m0n1k498

Is that correct?

This might not happen until Monday as most of the Staff, or at least the staff in charge of changing user names, doesn't work on the weekends.

[m0n1k498]

Yes please,

thsnk you

[Jas_1234]
