member profile @name vs. username

[linkpoin2]

HI, i would like to change the displayed member “@name” (under their profile photo)  instead to the username (FirstName_LastName…. so the @handle is not present) … if that is possible and easy to do?  Do you have any suggestions on where this can be done within a child theme or options?  Thanks.

Hello, by default buddypress uses username for mentions, that is not easy to change sadly

not looking to change the functionality, just the display. instead of displaying the @mentions only under the profile image, I would like to display the username above it as well. easy?

Hi,

just Install this plugin and arrange the username and first, the last name in your desired order

https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-real-names/

And to have uusername under the profile picture in members profile add the next function to wp-content/themes/sweetdate-child/functions.php

COPY CODE

function displayed_user_username_under_profile_picture() {
	global $current_user;
	echo '<span class="username-under-avatar">'.$current_user->user_login .'</span>' ;
}

add_action('kleo_bp_after_profile_image', 'displayed_user_username_under_profile_picture')

NOTE : Child theme needs to be installed and activated.

Cheers
R.
