change username | WordPress.org

[ad_1]

You mean here, on projectdmc.org, or on your self-hosted WP site?

If here, you can change the display name in your profile, but not your user id. On your own site, it’s pretty much the same. You can’t (easily) change your user ID, but you can set a new display name.

yes, on projectdmc.org

Support can’t do this for me?

You can change your name (and how it displays) but the ID (@vtrn) cannot be changed.

The current system prevents usernames from being changed, even admins can’t change their own usernames.
