change username

[+jhopfgartner]

It's very important for me to change my username without loosing my cache and my log-entries.

What should I do?

There's no "change"-sign next to my username...

Any hints?

Thx

J.

It's no longer possible to change your username. They locked that down back in May of this year. Your only option would be to relog all your finds under a new name.

 

You've only got two logs and one cache, so it would seem to me to be quite easy to accomplish. Relog the two finds and then "adopt" your cache over to your new ID.

Thanks; i'll do this, but what do you mean with "adopt" the cache? Is there a fuction vor transfer a cache or do I have to list it new?

Transfer your hidden cache at http://www.geocaching.com/adopt -- there are complete instructions towards the bottom of the Frequently Asked Questions thread that's pinned at the top of the "Getting Started" forum. There's also a post there about how to transfer to a new username.
