Display Name versus Nickname registration field
-
I think UM has got it wrong with having a
display_name
field. It should benickname
.Firstly read this post…
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/104548/where-the-nickname-is-being-used-in-wordpressAs you can see the display_name was never meant to be a text field but rather a selectable field dynamically choosing between username, first name, last name, first/last, or last/first, or nickname.
UM should make a new field of nickname for the text entry and then change display_name to a dynamically selectable field like it is in native WP.
This way it conforms to the WP way and allows us to set our own nickname. This may be what is causing the my previous problem of the display name changing each time I update my account.
