May I ask why do you need to change the internal names?

The field name was called "adress" but it should be "street". If I change the Field name in Field management it works for new users, but not for the already registered ones? I've tried this on a demo site setup and then the already registered users are not listed anymore....

Backup first.

Find the row in your comprofiler_fields table and change the values of the name and tablecoumn to what you want.

then edit your comprofiler table and change the column name to the new name.

Hi Nant,

Thanks, this did the trick, but I had also to change the fields from the already registered users...was some work but I managed...

Regards!
