👋 Hello Workfronters!

 

Now that we've all migrated from one.workfront.com to experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com, I've noticed it's tough to @ tag folks because all of our usernames were automatically squished using a formula into something unique, but unfamiliar.

 

So! With a nod to Motorhead for providing this energetic background track to listen to while you do so, I invite you to:

 

  • Update your username to something obvious, to make it easier to find you on an @ tag
  • Click your photo (top right) > My Community Profile > click and Update your photo
  • Leave a comment below with both now intact, turning this post into a "welcome back" registry

 

Regards,

Doug

Hi folks,

 

Fyi, here is a quick cheat-sheet showing how you can update your (cryptic) username within Experience League (e.g. to your real name).

 

Regards,

Doug

Just realized I liked your post, but never replied, so hi there! Trying to get back into the community swing of things, but this ExL migration has been really weird 🙃

No worries, and nice to see you again Sheri -- thanks for playing!

it seems really weird that adobe forums don't have some sort of "preferred name" field that defaults to your first and last name -- but can be changed if needed -- and can be referenced through a tag. I personally feel a bit disconnected and distanced from the posts if I can't put a professional name to them. It's quite different responding to Doug Den Hoed, as opposed to ddh_36278 (and also easier to remember and build a relationship with over time to the former as opposed to the latter)

Spot on, @skyehansen. Full, recognizable names improve searching, conversation, and engagement. Hence this homework.

And thank YOU, Random Citizen: an excellent example to prove my point!

 

I look forward to reconnecting and addressing you properly once you've run through the above.
