Any way to change that? I put my old MFIF username as username and a new public name (not entirely realizing what it was) only to see that the latter one is displayed only. The "edit profile" does not have this item as a changeable one.

I found that to be puzzling also. I entered the same thing on both lines.

I've changed your display name to match your user name. I'm poking around to see if there's a way to make that the default on new user registrations.

Thanks, Tacit! Actually, I have registered myself again under a different e-mail to preserve the public name, so now I have two accounts. Hope this is not a problem.

Which one would you like to keep? I can delete the other.
