Is changing discobot’s name broken for anyone else in 2.8.2? I followed these tips , but once I change the name it stops responding. Don’t really know where to start troubleshooting. Thoughts?

So, good news, I can replicate your issue. :partying_face: …

[immagine] JammyDodger: can replicate your issue. Thanks for your help. I am glad you were able to confuse the poor thing. Let me know if you find a way to get it back on track. I’ve been chasing my tail for a while with no luck :frowning:

I have him working again. :balloon: For this, I reset him back to ‘Discobot’ from both the admin and user preference screen (which did not make him work), and then changed his name from his preferences page and made sure to press ‘change’, ‘yes’, and then Save Changes.
