| Dec 28, 2018 at 11:10 | comment | added | deelite | How can I change the UID of an author on submit? I tried rules but there's no action to change the author. | |
| Dec 28, 2018 at 11:04 | comment | added | deelite | Changing the UID is a good idea. So far I was thinking of using the real name or another field from user profile. | |
| Dec 27, 2018 at 19:26 | comment | added | Kevin | I don’t think the ask is for duplicate usernames. Hence the suggestion to just change the UID on comment submit. | |
| Dec 27, 2018 at 18:41 | comment | added | user78966 | It is not possible to have duplicate usernames, see this post | |
| Dec 27, 2018 at 16:04 | comment | added | Kevin | Can you just change the author uid of that comment on submit if the user is in a certain role? | |
