Would you like to change my username link?
-
Dear developers,
a couple of months ago, I changed my WordPress and Gravatar username (because you offered me to do that, and I was glad to be able to do). The problem is that the link to my WP account did not change while the Gravatar did. I’ve been waiting for a few times while hoping that it would chage automatically, but until now, it remains unchaged. So, is it an error or maybe I cannot use the same username as Gravatar because someone has used it already? Thanks in advanced -
You’re referring to the website that your username links to in forum posts and comments, right? That is not updated automatically when you change your username or blog name. To update it you’ll need to edit the web address here.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

yes, you’re right. @andrew.
and actually I changed my username in the link you give.
so, to be clear, my current username is “slametbadwi” (in both WP.com and gravatar), but the URL is different.
gravatar.com/slametbadwi for Gravatar and en.forums.wordpress.com/profile/slametaryo-2 for this forum.
could you please explain it? thanks -
It looks like the permalink for the forums profile will retain your old username, but the page itself reflects your current username. There is no way to modify this permalink, I’m afraid.
