How do I change my user name?

Change your user name in your user account settings. Remember, this should be your REAL first and last name to aid in trust and transparency.

The user profile is unique to only you. Even if you are part of an organization, this is your page and having a recognizable name will be especially handy when sharing campaigns and/or contribution activities with your network. 

STEP 1 – You can always find your user profile by clicking either the house icon in your breadcrumbs bar or the profile icon at the top-right corner of any ConnectionPoint platform.

STEP 2 – From your profile, click ‘Account Settings’ on the main page, or in the top-right corner menu. Did we overdo it? Perhaps a little…

STEP 3 – Under ‘Identity’ in the sidebar menu, you’ll find the Change option for your name and username:
