Forum:Username Changing/My Signature

From Yugipedia
Jump to: navigation, search


I was wondering if there is a way for an Administrator to change my username, since I've grown tired of it. The change would be minor, and people would still be able to recognize me, but I just don't like this specific name anymore.

For my second question, my Signature doesn't leave a link to my page anymore, and I was wondering if anyone knew how to change that. Thank you for helping!--Akiza'sRose66 14:06, October 26, 2009 (UTC)

On the top right of your screen, click more, preferences, and then look for the part where it does your signature. User:Toob/Talk 14:26, October 26, 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I know how to change what my signature shows, but there is no link to my User page. I would like to know exactly what to type in so that my Signature is blue, and it leaves a link to my page. Thanks!--Akiza'sRose66 14:33, October 26, 2009 (UTC)

For a sig, you have to include a link. Try something like [[User:Akiza'sRose66|Akiza'sRose66]], which produces Akiza'sRose66.
I'm not sure about the name change, though. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 20:12, October 26, 2009 (UTC)
On your preferences page, uncheck the 'Custom Signature' box. That will fix your problem. -bewk
You cannot have your user name changed. Your account follows you across Wikia to thousands of other wikis. Admins can't change it because they don't have admin rights on all those wikis. Staff can, but won't change it, as it's way too much work. They'll only ever change account names it if a wiki hosted elsewhere moves to Wikia. -- Deltaneos (talk) 03:02, October 28, 2009 (UTC)

Okay, thanks. I appritiate all of those who showed me how to make my signature work, I finally got it the way I wanted!--Black Rose 12:17, October 28, 2009 (UTC)
