I don’t see your name in either your “new” profile

or the your “old” profile

Hi Steve,

It’s not on the “new” profile correct, but it is on the “old” profile.
Click on the “Activity” tab, and search the page for “Yusri”.

I get 6 results – my name is clearly there even though I have changed my name. Where does it get my name from?

Regards.

This is the only place I see your name

The internet never forgets.

Should it not be shown based on what my username, or First Name is currently?
And, can it not be removed?

That bit of history can’t be changed.

When a post is made and people contribute answers to an issue, that then becomes part of the community resource for others to benefit from. Deleting posts removes this added value. Forum topics will only be edited or deleted if they represent a valid legal, security, or safety concern.

We reserve the right to delete topics or posts that are off-topic or detrimental to the community, however it is not the general policy to edit or delete forum posts unless they are spam, harassing, illegal, or outright abuse. We will not delete your post or remove your link just because an Internet search for a term brings up the forums before your actual URLs.

My activity is not a post, neither is it ever editable. It logs the activities I’ve performed.

This doesn’t explain why it (my activity log) displays my name, instead of my username as this page does – what is the difference? Because it’s not a post.

It’s there. It can’t be changed.

I’m closing this thread because the longer replies keep coming, the more Google notices it.
