changing email and user name

[boobook]

Just upgraded to full v5 a few days ago. (really like it so far)

back story..
My sister moved to Jersey yesterday from South Carolina.
She could not get onto our family forum so she made up a new user name.

I have her information (user/password, email) and tried to sign in and it wouldn't let me change her email to a new gmail account as opposed to one from down south.

I am able to get her old name working as of right now because I had to ok the old email (probably was a mistake, but figured I could change everything once I got her signed in)

1. How do I change her email, or have her change her email. ( I am admin and have access to her account)
2. switch her old user name to new name while keeping all her old posts.

thanks

Hi boobook,

To change the email, have her login to her account and then click the icon found in the bar at the lower right hand corner of the screen. She'll be able to change her email address (along with other things) on the next page.

Unfortunately though it's not possible to change the username that you use to login with. You can always change your display name by modifying your profile, however

thanks for getting back to me so fast

(under her old name correct... ) she still wants that but will change her display name.
I see a gear icon, just like the one in our posts? to the right on top?
dropdown says top of post, select post, member

I do not see an option anywhere to change email.
in profile, in a post?
