Hi, 

Please my website name starts with a number '9jamedica' and I want to use it as the cloud name but I'm getting an error message that I can't start the cloud name with a number. Please is there anything that can be done about this because changing it will affect my images URLs?

Thanks.

  Hello, I believe we've answered you over on the wordpress post you've made. However, for searchability, I'll copy the response we sent to you here as well.

  Below are the naming conventions that can be used for a cloud as well as public Ids:
  https://support.cloudinary.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001317409–Legal-naming-conventions

  Unfortunately, the name cannot begin with a number. You can probably rename it to something like
  “ninejamedica” if you prefer.

  Please note that because the cloud name is part of your asset delivery URLs, all existing URLs that include the old cloud name will stop working after the change, and you’ll need to update your application or website’s URL to use the new URL convention of:

  http://res.cloudinary.com/<new_cloud_name>/image/upload/sample.jpg

  You will also need to update your use of any SDKs, API calls, or plugins that reference the previous cloud name.

  Also, if you would like us to update your cloud name, please provide the Last.4 Characters of API Secret. But since this is a forum post,I would recommend that you create a support ticket at support@cloudinary.com for security purposes.
