How to update profile name, email address and password

Having recently strated to use a new email address, AND also been  advised that it's not a good idea to use a plus net user name as a forum profile name, how can I change all these? There seems to be no way to do this !

Not sure if this will work, but if you log out from the community then try registering a new community user ?

 

Edit : though the new user would not link to all your existing posts etc

I did think of that , but I don't think thats acceptable as the original forum profile and name remain on the system

If you click on your avatar at the top and select Settings then you will find the options to change your email and password.

Bare in mind that creating a 2nd account is against the Forum RulesWink
