How do I merge contributors?

Closed

I believe these two are both the same contributor:

Is there a way to merge them, or tell Ohloh that they are the same person?

Hello

You can go here: link

This allows you to make an alias, or tell Ohloh that two people are the same.

I went ahead and created one for the two contributors you mentioned.

These changes won't take effect however until the next update ohloh performs on your project which is currently about once a day.

Thank you Robert. That was helpful.

Is there a way to merge accounts and keep the kudos. I have commits under husted and thusted. When I claimed thusted@struts, the kudos disappeared (I believe there were 7). There are a couple other accounts of mine here:

Thanks for setting up Ohloh. It's a fantastic resource.

Ted:

I don't believe there is a way to merge accounts right now and retain kudos.

Also, we are having some problems with the way Kudos are calculated and have temporarily stopped calculating them until we can fix it. This may have affected your kudos that you noted disappeared. I can't say for sure as our kudos calculation is a bit of a mystery (even to us) right now.

Thanks, Robert. Understood.

Thanks. This was my exact problem too.

Does it retain kudos now?
