I have been looking and cannot find.

How can I change announcements? Meaning where callouts go like if someone comments.

Now it goes to a work
Email and I want to change that.

Ok, click on your avatar in upper right corner. You should get a drop down box. Select account details. In new window that open toward top is the email. Nex to it is a box to click to change email.

If that doesn’t work let me know.

:headscratch: Not on my screen but then I have a moderators screen and I suppose it could be different. Instead of clicking on the avatar on top of each page in a blue bar under the forum banner on the right side click on your name. A window pops up, click on account details, a new page will appear (load) and on the top right of that page is your email address. Just to the right of your email address is a link that says "Change". Simple as that. Dunno about clicking on the avatar. I'll try that and see what I get.

I am using my iPad so the screen might look a bit different?

Hhmmm . . . Nope, clicking on the avatar only tells me who I am. Handy, I probably need reminding every now & then. :rolleyes:

I looked, on iPad held vertical my name doesn’t show. Rotated 90° it does show my name.

OK CW, first step for you is to get an iPad, the. I can help you.

Click on your name in the taskbar right below the forum header (next to your inbox), go to "account details", email is shown at the top of the page on the right. Click the box next to the email address which reads "change".

Yes, but not from someone using a PC.

Also, you said "instead of clicking your name in the blue bar"....but when I clik on my avatar it just takes me to the public profile, no way to view account from there. The only way I can do it is to click on my name in the blue bar and get the drop down.

What do you think I am using? :headscratch:

You are using the moderator's screen on a PC. I can't get to my account through my avatar at the left sidebar of posts.

Precisely . . . Neither can I which is why I corrected Brad.

Just looked at mine. You want account details and your email address will be shown there and you can change it.

Just re-read this and I see where the confusion came from. No, I didn't say say "Instead of clicking your name" I said instead of clicking on the avatar. Re-read my post again, it's not been edited.
