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!
