Good to know

  • Your Username cannot be changed. To show a different name, type it into Nickname, then choose it under Display name publicly as.
  • Your profile is shared across every ECU WordPress site you belong to, so changes show up on all of them.
  • Your profile picture comes from Gravatar, a free service linked to your email address.
