Changing this username on your ECO server can be helpful if you want to update your identity, match your community branding, or simply refresh your in-game presence. Fortunately, when you host your ECO server with <strong>GGServers<\/strong>, the process is straightforward and can be done directly from our user-friendly <a href=\"https:\/\/panel.ggservers.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game server control panel<\/a>. In this guide, we\u2019ll walk you step by step through how to change your SLG Username safely and effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1: Access the GGServers Control Panel<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To begin, go to <a href=\"https:\/\/panel.ggservers.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">panel.ggservers.com<\/a> and log in using the credentials provided when you set up your ECO server hosting account. The GGServers control panel is designed to give you complete control over your server settings, from performance adjustments to account details like your SLG Username.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2: Stop Your ECO Server<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Before making any configuration changes, it\u2019s important to stop the server. This prevents any data corruption or conflicts during the update process. Click the <em>Stop<\/em> button in your control panel and wait until the server status confirms that it has been shut down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"121\" height=\"56\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32.png\" alt=\"Stop The Server\" class=\"wp-image-17502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32.png 121w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32-50x23.png 50w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32-60x28.png 60w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32-100x46.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 121px) 100vw, 121px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Stop your ECO server before editing settings<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3: Open the Server Settings Menu<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On the left-hand navigation panel of your GGServers dashboard, locate and click on <em>Server Settings<\/em>. This section contains all the configurable options for your ECO server, including network, account, and gameplay parameters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"274\" height=\"58\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-26.png\" alt=\"Server Settings Button\" class=\"wp-image-17495\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-26.png 274w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-26-50x11.png 50w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-26-60x13.png 60w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-26-100x21.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 274px) 100vw, 274px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Accessing the Server Settings menu<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4: Navigate to the Account Tab<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Inside the Server Settings, you will see multiple tabs that group different configuration options.

Be sure to enter your new username carefully, as this is the identity that players will see when joining your ECO server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"418\" height=\"157\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-109.png\" alt=\"SLG Username Field\" class=\"wp-image-17726\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-109.png 418w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-109-300x113.png 300w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-109-50x19.png 50w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-109-60x23.png 60w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-109-100x38.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 418px) 100vw, 418px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The SLG Username field where you can edit your login name<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 6: Change and Save the Username<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Simply replace the current SLG Username with your desired new one.

Once updated, your ECO server will recognize the new username during the next startup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 7: Restart Your ECO Server<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Finally, go back to the main dashboard and click <em>Start<\/em> to bring your ECO server back online.
