How do I change how my name appears on the website

If your name appears a link on the website (i.e. clicking it takes you to another page), read on below. If your name appears as plain text, please contact the owner of the page (shown after "If you have a question about this talk/list, please contact:").

There are two central places where linked names are stored - they are sourced from:

• EITHER: The speaker info customised on a per-event (i.e. per-Talk) basis - this is stored in each Talk
  • The name (and optionally, affiliation) displayed for the Speaker of a Talk is the name shown next to a "person" icon, just above the date/time and venue info
• OR: A user's profile
  • ALL names other than the "speaker" case described above is sourced from a user's profile page
  • This includes the contact names shown after the text If you have a question about this talk/list, please contact:

If you would like the way your name or affiliation appears as "speaker info", the Talk itself will need to be edited - this can be done by the speaker themselves, or by a user with edit rights to that talk. After logging into the website and going to the Talk page, there should be a "Edit this talk" link near the top. The edit page has a "Speaker's name and affiliation" field.

If you would like to change the way a linked name appears anywhere else on the website, you need to update your profile page. Log in to the website, click "Edit your details" from the left-hand sidebar.

If you would like to change the way somebody else's linked name appears, they should log in and update their own profile.
