I noticed that the way the ID's are displayed on the user page is different for several projects. Seti and Einstein do it the same way, LHC-Pirates-ClimatePrediction another way. In fact they are the same, it's just the internal/external version of the same ID as far as I know (please correct me if I'm wrong).
But if I look at a stats site as www.Boincstats.com they are all the same.
Are your ID's also different if you look at e.g. Boincstats?
Now I have to guess partly and start digging in my memory. ;-)
To be shown on a stats site you need credits. You got your first Einstein credits yesterday evening. As far as I remember boincstats updates the credits every hour but the userlist only every day, so probably you will be shown in a couple of hours (I hope I'm not wrong ;-) ).
If you look to yours stats on this site: http://stats.kwsn.net/
you will notice that you are listed in the Einstein list and that your Cross Project ID's for Einstein/Seti/ClimatePrediction are the same.

You are correct. SETI, Einstein and BOINC Alpha have updated webpages that show external ID (hashed from internal ID and email address). External ID would be the one seen at stats site (such as www.BOINCstats.com) as it's exported in the XML files. The other projects are behind in updating their server software.

Looking at your signature now, it looks lilke its all sorted because it is listing all of your credits, including Einstein.

The Boinc software on the server side was changed about a month ago about the Cross Project ID that is displayed. Every account has 2 CPIDs - an internal one to the project for sharing the project settings your computer uses, and an external one used for the stats sites.
Originally, the boinc software on the server side showed the internal Cross Project ID in your account settings. People were getting confused looking for that ID on the stats pages and not finding their stats. For that reason, the software was changed to show the external CPID in your account settings. Since the projects all haven't updated the server code the IDs appear different from one project to the next.
Look for the line "Used in exported accounting data" just below "Cross-project ID". If you see that line then the project is showing the external Cross Project ID which will match the ID on the stats sites. If you do not see that line then the project is still using older code and showing the internal Cross Project ID which will not match the stats sites.

It should be the same. Just to be sure:
Do you use the same e-mail address for all projects?
Do you have at least 1 PC running both Einstein and another project?
(it can take a couple of days before the ID's are the same)
