Rick II Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 A lot of people including me seem to have a bunch of numbers added to the end of their display name. Is this a bug that will be fixed or so we need to change our names? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coopers DIY Beer Team Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 The number looks buggy or perhaps you are the 1billion, 525milion, 232thousand and 231st Rick on our site. Will see what our IT Crowd have to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this a bug that will be fixed or so we need to change our names? Confirmed that it's not a bug. This site has more functionality than the old forum and part of this requires for all registered users to have a unique Display Name. There's more than one Rick registered as a user so the system has allocated a number to follow your name. Cheers! DIY Beer Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick II Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 OK but how do we change our display name? Also, when going to unread posts and opening a topic, it goes to the first post instead of the latest post. That doesn't really make much sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to your name at the top right of the screen, click on the drop down arrow, select Account Settings. There should be the option to change your Display Name.

Could be because I'm using a phone? I am using it in desktop browser mode though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the phone you should see 3 white horizontal bars at the top right of screen, tap this symbol and you should see a window scroll across with one of the options being ACCOUNT, tap that and on the next menu tap Account Settings. Then SETTINGS window should pop up and the option to change your display name should be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you've logged in, at the top righthand side of the page you'll see your username & avatar. Click your username & then click "Profile". Your profile will appear including a larger picture of your avatar & username from the lefthand side of the screen. Ontop of your avatar pic you'll see a smaller image symbol. Click that symbol & you will then be given options to change your avatar pic. I hope that helps. Lusty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
