The MemberPress Toolbox – Set Display Name add-on offers enhanced control over the display names of users signed up through MemberPress. By default, their display names are set as their username or email address. However, this add-on expands these options, allowing you to choose from various formats for display names, offering flexibility to tailor the presentation to your preferences.
Here are the key display name format options available:
- First Name: Displaying only the user’s first name.
- First Name (John): Displaying the first name with the actual name, for example, “John.”
- Ultimate Name (Doe): Showing the last name, for instance, “Doe.”
- Full Name (John Doe): Displaying the full name as “John Doe.”
- Complete Name, Last First, Last First (Doe, John): Displaying the last name followed by a comma and then the first name, such as “Doe, John.”
- First Name, last original, last initial (John D.): Showing the first name, last name initial, for instance, “John D.”
- Last Name, Original First (Doe, J.): Displaying the last name followed by a comma and the initial of the first name, for example, “Doe, J.”
- Username Username (johndoe): Displaying the username as “johndoe.”
- (johndoe@email.com) Email: Displaying the email address in parentheses.
This add-on automatically updates the display names during registration, login (if opted for), and profile/account changes. It’s important to note that these changes don’t affect administrative users, as they can set and utilize their preferred display names within their WordPress User Profiles independently.
