I'm sorry, but wpForo doesn't have option for that.

Sorry I have seen a few discussions on this topic but could not see a clear solution. 

I have a membership with Memberpress and my Community with wpForo. I am wanting to make a change to protect my members privacy but not sure where the change needs to be made. Currently, when a member registers, they provide their first and last name to join the membership, which should be kept private. However, wpForo takes that information automatically and makes their first and last name their display name that is visible to all other members. I would like to change it so that this does not happen, and instead their username shows as their display name. is this something you can support with?

 

Thanks

Lisa
