Send Us Your WordPress Questions
By Mitch "WordPress Guru" Keeler
WordPress might be one of the more popular blogging tools and scripts out there today, but there are still many unanswered questions about it. Over the next few weeks I thought it might be a good idea to tackle some of these questions right here. If you have a general WordPress question that has been keeping you up at night, feel free to send it my way to mitch.keeler@lunarpages.com. Make sure you put in the title "Lunartics WordPress Question" so I can be sure to see it and also include your name and your Lunarpages hosted web site (if yo have one).
As an example, lets tackle the question of changing your blog’s title.
To change the name or title of your blog, you will need to login to the WordPress admin interface, usually found at:
yourdomain.com/wp-admin/
From there, click on Options and then the General tab.
To change the title of your blog, find where it says "Blog title:" and put your own title into the text box next to it. You can also change your in the text box under your title box. Once you have done that, hit the "update options" button and you are done.
Remember to keep your questions general if possible, so that way everybody can get something out of the answer. Have a WordPress question? Send it my way and see it answered right here!

Hi Mitch,
I apologive, I managed to solve the problem through trial and error with the phpMyAdmin section of the MySQL database. I simply changed the wp_users file user login name by selecting browse, write, changing the name, and then exporting the file.
Thanks,
Shon
