Project 'Name' field updating flaw (affects all graphs and charts) ...

Example:
http://www.boincstats.com/charts/chart_uk_bo_object_pietotalcredits_users_38862.gif (from start to today)
http://www.boincstats.com/charts/chart_uk_bo_object_piedaycredits_users_38862.gif (24 hrs)

For some reason, it can be possible to have different BOINC User Names (in the BOINC project field that has Nation + Postcode + email address) accumulate over time.

However, BOINC Stats does not check back [on a monthly basis, or via specific request at least] to see if you have updated your name (so that it is the same accross all projects).

The only name I want at this point for my charts is:
HireMe.geek.nz

It would be nice to use bam.boinstats.com as a full blown accounts manager, allowing one to standardize the BOINC email + name + nation + postcode accross all projects.

Every day your username in all projects is updated from the projects XML. If you change your name in some or all projects, BOINCstats will reflect this as soon as the XML is updated.
(Exception: retired projects, but there aren't any at them moment).

The only name I want at this point for my charts is:
HireMe.geek.nz

Then make sure you update all projects, and hope they export (good) XML files.

Already possible.
Please do not PM, IM or email me for support (they will go unread/ignored). Use the forum for support.
