Problem Description
I changed my username, and the change appeared on Login (https://login.ubuntu.com/ ) and Launchpad (https://launchpad.net/~ali-v1074 ), but the change did not appear on Discourse (Lubuntu - Ubuntu Community Hub ).
I have logged out and logged back in to Discourse several times, but my username still has not changed to the new username on Discourse.
What could be the reason?

I moved your request from Support and Help to Site Feedback as I’m sure that this is the correct location for a moderator to help with changing user names

Ali-v1074:

Launchpad & Ubuntu Discourse are different sites.
This site uses your Ubuntu SSO (single sign on; managed at launchpad) to login, but this site keeps its own configuration as to user details.
Are you wanting to change your username on this site?

Yes, exactly. I would like to change my username on Discourse from aliredagame300300 to
Ali-v1074, if the capital A is allowed. Otherwise, ali-v1074 is also fine.
