Here on your site I am categorized as Uncategorized. I would like to be categorized as a Technical Artist as I am one and have been in the industry as a TA for 16+ years. I have not been able to figure out how to change this. Could someone let me know how this is done or what I need to do to affect this change?
Thanks,
Morris Olmsted
Those categories go back to the old site, and if you look at other userās youāll see they are pretty random.
Theodox,
Got it, thanks.

Looks like you changed it. Or did someone change it for you?
I did it ā but we havenāt gotten around to automating it . The old site randomly assigned them in any case
It looks like the only way you can change your own title right now is if youāve got a badge that can act as one.
User -> preferences-> title?
Not sure if thatās available to others who are not admins
Yeah, my title in prefs just lets me select from my badges. which in my case is my Maya badge, as the others arenāt flagged to be used as a title.
Is anything being done about this?
I canāt change my title and I still have my old one āJr. Technical Artistā and would like to change that. No sensible option seems to be listed under that badge -page.
The title is just selected from Badges. Anything thatās not on the badge list is a holdover from the old site. If people want to propose new badge names I think we can add them, but most of them are auto-generated by the forum software. Itās not like ājob titleā ā itās not a user settable field
Then I would like to propose an empty string as a badge name so we at least can get rid of it
Do you not get the option to chose <none>
? It looks like itās not all the badges, only the privilege level related ones, that show up thereā¦
I can select None, but I also have a badge with a title. Not sure how it works for folks without a usable badge.
I added a few generic ones to the badge page ā i finally figured out how. Iāll see if people have opinions about which ones to do. Iāll add a post asking for suggestions
