Hi @zit3k

you need the > wpForo User Custom Fields addon to do this

Is there a free solution?

If it is not possible to disable it, it would also be good if I could remove those 2 lines, for example, in CSS.

you can remove the fields with CSS "display: none".
but with this you remove the possibility for your members to use display and nickname, then the username will be used everywhere

Nickname vs Username vs Display Names

with the addon you can add the two fields to the registration form
so your members can use display and nickname but not change them in their profile

Yes, I know this:
"display: none"

I just don't know how to reference those 2 lines in CSS 🙂

Can you tell me that please?

.wpf-field.wpf-field-type-text.wpf-field-name-display_name, 
.wpf-field.wpf-field-type-text.wpf-field-name-user_nicename {
  display: none;
}
