Sync Problem or Account Problem

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Beginners Area/Sync Problem or Account Problem

Last Week I changed my profile. As part of this I changed my account name. However sync mods does not accept either the old name nor the new name.

OK. So I just changed my name back for the time it takes to sync MODS, but a workround is not a solution.

Any sudjestions?

The syncmods login like the site login uses the UserName not the account name or the nick name.

Your user name is private so I'm not sure why you would want to change it.

However if that is what you are wanting to do and it isn't working maybe it's the name you are trying to change to, spaces should work but quotes and some other characters are likely to upset the process.

Skid would by any chance a & upset it?

My guess would be yes.

I would go along with the yes. The ampersand will act as a parameter seperator.
