For various reasons my wiki is closed. A large number of the users had a user name chosen for them by virtue of membership of another site. Some of these uses want to change their user name.
Is there a special page that will allow a logged in user to change their user name?

Install the RenameUser extension. A user with bureaucrat permissions can then rename the user account.

Thanks Rob
But is it possible for the user to rename themselves

In theory, if you were to grant anyone permission to use the extension, and hacked it so users could only rename themselves.

I'll have a look - thanks
