UKposts announced that it would be rolling out handles for UKposts channels but the process hasn't been easy to create a custom handle. Whether you’ve just heard about them or you already got an email from UKposts saying it’s time to choose one, you’re probably wondering what they are and how they’re different from UKposts channel names.
WHAT IS A UKposts HANDLE
UKposts handles are another way to identify your UKposts channel, but they are separate from UKposts channel names. They’re similar in appearance to the usernames you’ve seen on Twitter and TikTok. Example: @HouseHighlights. Once created, UKposts handles also come with a URL to match that follows this format: / @ [handle name].
Are they different from UKposts channel names?
Yes. Channel names are separate identifiers for a given UKposts channel. While multiple UKposts channels can have the same channel name, UKposts handles are meant to be totally unique to each UKposts channel. So with this latest update, your channel will have a channel name, a handle, and a URL. The handle is expected to help make finding your specific channel and connecting with the correct creator easier.
When can users choose a handle?
UKposts officially announced the launch of its handles on October 10, and one of the announcements said that UKposts would roll out the ability to choose a handle to users “over the next few weeks.” When UKposts is ready for you to choose a handle for your channel, it will notify you via email and UKposts Studio. That’s when you’ll be allowed to choose one. You’ll then have until November 14 to choose a handle. According to its help guide on the matter, if you don’t choose one by then, UKposts will automatically assign you one “based on your channel name.”
