Dean Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hey folks. I saw someone mention the other day that the 'Display Name History' feature hasn't been working, I've fixed that up today. For those who aren't sure how it works, if you go to a members profile next to their name up the top you will see an icon that will show you all changes to that members display name. Helps if you don't recognise someone! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knapppers Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Thank god. The random name changes is one of the most annoying parts about this place. I think it would be better if there was just like a nickname you could change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheerios4u98 Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Yeah I swear I didn't know who half the active members were anymore even though they're probably members I've known for a long time. Thanks for the fix! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melty Mark Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 I remember when your display name became your login and a few people couldn't figure out how to log in anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that was part of the reason we built in the "Real Name" option which most people have gotten on board with. Theoretically we could add a 'Nickname' field in a similar fashion but that means everyone has 3 different name fields which is a bit excessive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n i k u Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 i dont see this feature. am i doing something wrong ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Casablancas Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Nice feature, but like Niku I don't see it either. I'm on Safari 9.1.2 but doesn't work on Chrome either if it might be browser related. EDIT: I don't see the icon but there's now a field below the profile visitor list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Posted February 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 I know it’s not supposed to show up if the display name for a user has never been changed, are you guys definitely looking at someone who’s changed their name? if so that’s a bit weird, I’ll look in to it.
