I need help with changing my user or display name, but not sure which.
-
I have already looked at an answer about this, but it didn’t help when I came to actually execute it. I want to change my username. Because you can’t change it back once it’s done, I don’t want to get it wrong and I am also confused as to what the difference is between my display name and username. I don’t want to change my web address for the blog, but will be wanting to in the future…
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
So the display name is the name that is seen on your posts and comments. The username is just the name you use to login.
You can change the name displayed on your posts and comments by changing the “display name” on your Personal Settings admin panel:
