Hello,
we (an association in Italy) are using several long-standing (Premium) forums that were created (several years ago) and owned by another person, whose nickname was "sgratis": he gave us the login and the password, but we would like to change it to IstitutoScientia.
How can we do?
I understand that the login cannot be changed.
But, if it is possible, please change "sgratis" to "IstitutoScientia". Otherwise I will create such a login ("IstitutoScientia") and ask you to transfer them from sgratis to IstitutoScientia.
The forums are premium and we will continue to pay for them.
Thanks.
F.C.

The only way to do it is the way you suggested. Create a new Premier login and have the forums switched over. Remember, only forums transfer. Realms, access groups and other resources do not transfer.

To be honest, the only time it matters is when the forum owner posts. If you want to save a ton of work, just keep the forum ownership as-is and use the owner login only to maintain the forum. If you like seeing the "Forum Owner" tag on your posts, create a group named "Forum Owner" or something similar and put your other login in that group.
