"Display name publicly as" field does not work

Hi John,
Thanks for reporting this. I’ve replicated it and it’s definitely a bug.
I’ll add it to our development list and we’ll push for a fix in the next release.

Hi John,
Just a heads up that we fixed the Display Name bug, it will work as expected (and will also be a dropdown) in the next release scheduled for next week.

Hi!
It still does not work as it should do. It is there as a dropdown though. But it’s not showing as the display name in wordpress.

Could it be because it do not have any “Meta Name” field to add. Doesn’t it also need a Meta Name as “display_name”?

I have version 2.0.8 of the plugin.

Regards

Hi
an update to my earlier post. It seems to work now ( i had version 2.0.7 when tested it).
But i’m not sure if i use this, because it also needs to use the “Nickname”, it’s not possible to choose what ever display name you want (because of the dropdown) Than there will be a lot of names when people registering if i also want to collect the real names.

Username
First Name
Last Name
Nickname
Display Name
(That’s too much i think)

Hi,
Thanks for looking into this.
Right now the Display Name functionality works exactly like in WordPress. All we do is pick up the exact name combinations generated by WordPress and display them in the drop-down in front-end.

Display Name looks and works exactly like it does in the backend -> Your Profile tab.
Hope this makes sense.
