How do I edit my username, or the username of another user? FAQ - How to

Unfortunately in Matomo a user cannot edit their usernames. However there is an easy solution.

Follow these steps to create a new user with the correct username:

Login as Super User in Matomo, or ask a Super User to follow these steps for you.
Go to Administration > Users.
Change the email address for your current user (the one with the wrong username). For example change it to « example@example.com ».
Create a new user with the right username.
Assign this new user the same permissions as the old user.
Save the changes.
Then delete the old user.

Now you can use the new user with the correct username!
