How to change the username?

[pete]

1. How do I as the admin change the username of a different user?
2. How do users change their username?

Thanks

Hi,

I’m sorry but it’s not possible. The user username is the identity of the user and cannot be changed

OK, thanks. Then I change it directly in the database.
