First, click on the "Profile" link in the upper left:


Then click on "Edit Your Details":


Then look for the "Custom User Title" area:


Type your desired user title in the text box provided, then scroll all the way down and click on "Save Changes."

The ability to create your own user title may be linked to your total post count (too low = cannot create one), or it may be restricted for some other reason. I'll be getting in touch with PG admin to find out.

Kevin, the tech guy, is on vacation, which leaves us inmates in charge of the asylum.

Just to be clear:

Those of you who lack the custom title option, after clicking "edit your details," you see an "edit email and password" button, and directly underneath that you see a date of birth section, correct?

I have no clue how to mass change so every one gets a choice, but I can change your titles one by one until the master switch comes on.

My PM box fills up so fast, I'd rather you email me at caitlin@pearl-guide.com and tell me what you want your title to say.

LOL I think I'll wait. I might have a different title every day depending on whim.

Hi mikehrz -

Yes, this is what I see. Not to speak for everyone, of course.

No it won't be too much work! All I do is click to the right place and change it. I offer this service especially to people who want to do it now.

Try it for the next week or so until Kevin comes back and does the universal change.

Thanks, Caitlin!

I always did feel that all that 'expert' nonsense didn't fit me well.

Caitlyn,

Not a problem, I can wait I have a couple of stringing projects to "fuss with" that are just not working out quite right.

cheers
