Add option to change username

It seems like your username gets inferred from the email you used to create your account.

Let users change this name on the (user/edit)[https://getalby.com/user/edit] site.

(Please note, that i'm not talking about the name for your alby page)

Hi,
are you talking about your Alby lightning address as in username@getalby.com?

That username could be changed in the settings on https://getalby.com/.

Best, Moritz

Hello Moritz,

no, thats not what i'm trying to explain. Look, you are on your dashboard (https://getalby.com/dashboard) and at the top right corner it shows a profile picture and a name. Thats the name i'm talking about. I just can't seem to find a way to change it. If you go to settings (https://getalby.com/user/edit) you can change your picture, your email, your password, but not your username!

Greetings

on4r You should be able to edit this name over here:

https://getalby.com/settings/alby_page

Maybe we should move this setting to the general settings of the app. (where you were actually looking for them)

Hi RenΓ© Aaron, thanks for your reply.
I was talking to Jean-Paul the other day and he said the same.
Well... it's not working for me. It doesn't change my username at the dashboard. I cleared the cache, i tried different maschines, different browsers... nothing – my name in the dashboard stays the same.
