I changed a user's name to something new. Everything went fine of course. However, the old username still appeared everywhere where that person quoted something. So for example, if I search on the old username, I was getting 20 pages of results, and in them were the phrase "Originally posted by OldUserName." So, I did an SQL to change every case of OldUserName to NewUserName. I updated a lot of the counters, and searched again. I still find 20 pages of search results, but if I go into the threads found, the old username is gone and the new username is there. It's kind of like the change was made, but the search still finds the old name. I did try to rebuild the search index, but it seems to keep timing out.
Any suggestions on how to get this right so that the search does not find any of the oldusername?
Thanks!
