How do you change your chat nickname?

[Lilysmum]

Not sure how to do this - can anyone help?

This is how I do it. Go back to the 'Topics' Talk homepage and click on the link in the intro paragraphs, copied here...."You need to be a member of mumsnet, and have a "chat nickname" to use the board. If you are already a mumsnet member you can check or choose your nickname HERE." It instructs you on how to go about changing there.

This is a link to that page. Fill in your current details, to allow you access to your 'profile'. Once you're in you can change as many times you wish

Thanks WSM

This is driving me potty followed the link and its just not happening. Have been trying to change since last night. Please help someone!

Just scroll down to the bottom of this page and click on the bit that says forgotten password

Fill in the password you want in replace of yours, press update

done that just keeps coming up the same details as before. will try once again

Can u also keep your previous name ???

Lol I am trying to swop to christmascat but it wont let me change anything

No you don't keep your previous name. You delete that put the new one in and press update

Melsy you know my 2nd name, not the one begining with t the other one, can you see if you can change me to christmas cat please. The 2nd name is my password

FF, yep tryed changing kids d.o.bs and everything the same details pop back up when ive pressed update as if i havent deleted or tryed to change anything

eerrggh wot - confused???

ooh so to get it back u just have to go in and re do the update - right ?????

sorry charliecat confused - not sure wot you r suggesting to do????

can you log onto the link below, the forgot your password thing, put in my yahoo addy pennyandpaddy@ then change my name from charliecat to christmas cat and my password is my 2nd name the other end of penny

N0 you don't have to change anything apart from the new name, have a look at the top of the form when you have pressed update, it might say nickname already in use

nope it doesnt, i will try myself again

tryed again no luck it just refreshes the page without changing anything

once ive typed in what i would like changed after ive pressed refresh it just comes up the same page with no changes made

Step 1 delete your chat nickname
Step 2 type in christmascat
step 3 press update
step 4 go back to chat and use it

right must shoot dinner burning back later!!!!!!!!

charliecat have u seen the note about enabling cookies ??? it says it wont update if you dont do this.

Don't press reset press update

oh is that it, write i'll give up then
