The All About Nameberry Quick Question Thread

Dunno if this has been asked but can you change your username? I have no idea.

Our SSO system will automatically reset any username changes after the next log in, unfortunately. I have tried to change a few myself but it doesn’t stick.

Is there a way to view all the lists another user has?

I don’t think so, I’m afraid.

is it intentional that we can no longer see edit history of a comment when we click on the orange pencil?

Yes, sometimes edits are made to remove identifying information or potentially offensive content, so it serves no purpose to have these publicly visible.

Are views on profiles limited to one per user, or is it each time the profile is viewed?

I think each view counts separately. But obviously viewing your own profile doesn’t count!

Does it count as political if I put up an image of the bill I wrote for debate class?

It probably does, tbh. Sorry! I’m very curious too :slight_smile:

I think it’s to encourage selective liking, so that people don’t just like every single post but actually weigh up what the really good/valuable/insightful contributions are, so that these can then be displayed in various ways, e.g. through the orange/red topic reply count numbers, as “Most Liked” on people’s profiles, or via the badge system.

This is just how Discourse is set up. I can tweak a lot of settings (and I have raised the like limits for everyone) but I can’t choose what type of posts can and can’t be counted towards the like limits.

Quick question: How do I change the visible trust level badge on my UC when I reach the next trust level? I just became a regular and the badge on my UC still says “member”

Ok thanks :slight_smile:

Wait, it does? I just kept senior member.

You can change it manually if you go to profile and scroll down to “title”. However, if you switch from senior member to regular, you can’t switch back :(.

What does the little shield next to people’s usernames mean?

Thanks :blush:
