Hello,
I want to register on an English forum, but they are asking me for a "display name". I don't know what it is, nor the difference with the login name, which they are also asking for. Thank you for your responses.
Configuration: Windows Vista / Internet Explorer 7.0

    It's simply the name under which you will appear.

      ok, but what is the difference then with the login name?

      The login is for you to connect, so no one needs to see it; with the display, everyone recognizes you :)

    The login is for signing in, that's the one you need to remember.

      Thank you. Can the two be identical or could that cause a problem?

    No, you can put both the same in principle.
