Hi Nadia,

Under Settings > Users > you can choose to display the name instead of the username, did you try that ?

Hello

Yes I tried "Display the user name instead of username".
It displays the name correctly in the discussions but not in the SELECT_RECIPIENTS of the private messages.
This is the username that is displayed in the dropdown list.

Best regards

Hello Nadia,
I have fixed this here and it should be available in the next update!
What do you think about the new forums editor ? (currently used here but will also be available in the next update)
