It should fix itself within 24-30 hours. It could work faster if you logout and re-authenticate, just as suggested by others.

I think i should be autodetected
It might be the case that it is only detected authorizations try to logg out and logg in again.
It might be an ide to test to revoke access for pgc  from gc.com
https://www.geocaching.com/account/settings/authorizations
Logging in after that might help

When we changed our name it took a little while to filter though, like others have said, try logging out and then reauthorising to see if that speeds up the process.

GC.com registers change immediately. It probably remains in the browser cache retrieved. Try to clear the cache CTRL+F5

But project-gc.com don't know about it immediately. It has to detect that the id has a new name. So the old name will be used on pgc until the change is detected
