  • Default to handle

    Team,

    Is there a way to default all posts to your handle instead of your real name?

    Thanks Al

    Team,

    Do you mean "from" your handle?

    You have 2 options for posted-message "from" fields: user's alias (the default) or real name: SCFG->Message Areas ... Toggle Options:

    Post Using Real Names No
    Posting using a user's handle/call-sign is not an option.

    Thanks I see now.
