So, I had left my computer in the admin control panel while I went to get something while my friend was over. So, he goes over to my computer and changes my user name on my forum. I changed it back, but now all of my recent posts have the user name he changed it to... Please help!

Please post in the correct forum, this is for forum & server management.

Merge the other user with your old user.

admincp --> users --> merge

If all he did was change the name after you have changed it back click update user names in the Maintenance tab

Thank you. I thought that might work, but I didn't want to accidentally mess up something. And sorry for posting in the wrong forum.

Wait, it didn't work...

You might have to rebuild thread/forum info.

I had to when a member changed his username on my forum recently.

Will that do anything to harm posts, threads, or anything?

I have never had a problem with it.

If you feel uneasy you could backup your database first.

Okay, thank you.
