Topic on Talk:Phabricator/Help

Hello. I just discovered that username change on Phabricator was possible. I created a new account with the new username (Valcio) and stalled the old one "ValeJappo".

Valcio is linked to my new developer account (valcio) and ValeJappo to the old one (valejappo).

I would need to:

1. Delete "Valcio" (it has currently no actions/edit/anything)
2. Rename "ValeJappo" to "valcio" (*lowecase*, please)
3. (i can do it manually if you can not) Link "ValeJappo", now renamed to "valcio" to the new developer account

Thank you!

@Valcio Hi, I won't be able to change linked developer accounts. After deleting "Valcio" (not sure why it was created?), you could use your Developer account "ValeJappo" to log into the Phabricator account, link your MediaWiki SUL account on https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/external/ , log out of Phabricator, log into Phabricator via the MediaWiki SUL acount instead of the Developer account user, and go to https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/external/ to replace the Developer account user. Assuming you still have access to your Developer account "ValeJappo".

@AKlapper (WMF) I have now linked the phabricator account "ValeJappo" to my developer account (@Valcio). Now i will need phab:/p/valcio to be deleted and phab:/p/ValeJappo to be renamed to "valcio" (lowercase). Can you do it? Thanks

@Valcio For verification, I see in the Phab DB that the Description blurb of https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/p/ValeJappo/ at some point said "**This account is no longer active. It has been moved to @Valcio**".

Renaming done. Feel free to also connect your MediaWiki SUL account to your new old Phab account - thanks!
