We have sensitive subjects in our user group and need to maintain anonymity for our users. Can I have the profile only show a User firstname by default? If a given user wants to tweak their profile to show first and last name, that's fine with me, but we need to initially offer privacy for the user.

Hi,

wpForo does not set a user's display name based on their first and last name. Please read the FAQ topic below about nicknames, usernames, and display names: https://wpforo.com/community/faq/nickname-vs-username-vs-display-names/#post-40164

In case you want to say thank you 😊
