Question

How do I display my name above my email address since I now have joined a Group. I did edit my prorfile and my name is there but it doesn't display my name.

Answer 1

If you added a "nickname" to your Yahoo public profile, that is what would display above your email address when you post messages on your group.  You may not have added a nickname to your profile.  This is how to add the name as you want it to display on the group's site when you post messages there:

Go to http://my.yahoo.com and sign in.

Click on "My Account" near top of screen.

Enter your password again.

On the far right side of page, click on "Edit/Create Profiles."

Near top of page, to the right of the profile you wish to edit, click on "Edit".

Click on "Edit Profile Information" tab.

In the "Nickname" field, type in your name as you want it to appear on the group's site.

Scroll to bottom of page and click on "Save Changes".

After doing the above, when you post messages, your name will be displayed above your email address.
