Thanks for your response foolmars. The disabled=”disabled” code is already there.

I’ll play around with that file and see what happens.

Hi foolmars

Thanks for that, but I’m still pretty new at this, so please bear with me.

Could you let me know exactly which part of:

<p><label><?php _e(‘Username: (no editing)’); ?>
<input type=”text” name=”user_login” value=”<?php echo $profileuser->user_login; ?>” disabled=”disabled” />
</label></p>

… I should change, and what it should read instead? Is it that I should just delete disabled=”disabled”? Or do I change it to something else?

Thanks for your help.

Hi foolmars — if you are still keeping track of this post:

I can’t help you with your problem, although I share it (I’m assuming you mean the email to the admin notifying them a new user registration request).

But I’d like to make it such that no new user can alter how their name is displayed. At present, the default “display name publicly as” setting on my blog is to “username” rather than “Firstname Lastname”. I’d like to change it to the latter and make sure that new users cannot alter that. From what you say, you seem to have managed to do that — would you mind letting me know how?

Thanks

SM

I have the opposite problem — my default “display name publicly as” setting is to “username”, but I want the default setting to be “Firstname Lastname”.

Any suggestions?
