Question: Show Community Account Username ?

Hey I will move my Buddyboss Community to Fluent. My members know each other with their Community Account Usernames, not first name - last name. This is the first thing my beta users asked me to change. Is there a way to change how members are shown? Thank you

IΒ΄m also quite interested in that topic :-)

Hello Andreas ReinhardΒ 
FluentCommunity currently uses members’ first and last names for their displayed names. There isn’t a built-in setting to automatically use their Community Account Usernames instead.

I’ve prepared a PHP snippet that displays usernames in the main member lists, profiles, and post/comment author labels while preserving members’ saved names.

To use it, add the provided code through any snippets plugin like FluentSnippet and activate it.

You can get the workaround code snippet here: https://gist.github.com/NayanInsight/6cf1020923b3442f4b933e6beef36955
