Somehow my site name is not the same as my user name (I probably typed something wrong on my registration form, but I don't know how).

My site name is www.fastfetch.x10hosting.com and my user name is fastfetc (without the "h").

I believe this is related to another ticket I submitted in which I can't successfully install Front Page Extensions.

How do I change my user name to make them consistent?

right now, you can't. its 1 character short because cpanel has an 8 character name limit.

hopefully with the changes coreys implementing soon, this will go away, but for now, you can't change your names

you can't change the user name (cPanel name can not be more then 8 chars anyway), they should not need to be the same either. Admittedly I have never used the front page extension.

@supermatthew cPanel will continue to be limited to 8 chars, as it is not a limitation we have decided on as far as I know.
