User Name

Can I ask why both the user name and the alias appear under the profile? Makes one of them a little redundant doesn't it? I wouldn't usually expect my 'user name' to be visible if there was an option of an alias. Can I change my user name to match my alias? (I know I can change my alias but that isn't what I want to do!)

| Hmmm, does seem a little odd. Does this fix it for you? (see profile) -- Steve [I see username still appears in the link, but not much we can do about that as it's what YaBB uses throughout to identify you. I guess I could modify your username on the server, but at the risk of losing the attribution link to existing messages. Same risk were you to reregister under another name -- SJB]

| Works for me Steve - thanks. And all done with such speed. [And I don't think anyone would notice it in the link - unless of course they'd read our postscripts!! So I'd better not mention it also appears in the instant message system! ]

| Rats! Missed that. Try this! Well, I see that fixes it in the Inbox and Outbox indexes, but afraid it's still got to be "To username" when you compose a message...

As someone who has been through your garden gate.... (Chaucer and Freud would have a field day with THAT one!) ....can I just say how sorry I am to hear about that? How will you keep the cats in (Mrs Slokeham?) There, see? You've set me off now!
