How to restore a forum name?

BoTa_264741 Aug 21, 2017 3:07 PM

With latest CDC update, my forum name has changed form 'odissey1' to a 'user_123456..'. I don't see any place to update or change it.

Q: How to restore original forum nickname?

Q: "Where can I change back my username to "Bob Marlowe" ?"

Answer from Praveen, Cypress:
"I am sorry to tell that as of now, you can't change this yet.
We are working hard to find a solution for this. The plan is to fix this by this week."

Thank you, Bob. At least I am not alone.
Hope they fix upload dates as well.

Hello,

We are currently using the unique username which is provided through Cypress SSO. We are looking into the possibility of leveraging a Nickname as opposed to that system created and assigned username and will keep you posted on the status.

I just restored your username to odissey1. Log out, then back in to see if the new name is working.

mifo,
thank you for restoring my forum name. Now before log-in it looks as expected:
but once logged-in, the full name is still shining back (screenshot edited):
For privacy reasons I would like to keep it always under a forum name, but I couldn't find an option in Account Settings to to so.
Is it possible to always display only the default forum name?

Recall that when you are logged in, you personally will always see your full name.

Others will see this:
