force old and new users display name to nickname

Hi @haribonda ,

Here’s the code for just first name: https://gist.github.com/kimcoleman/613b90e6ff2b092318eed48c5b6c04bf

Once that’s code is in place whether through a custom plugin or the Code Snippets plugin, you can run the script on the Force First Last admin settings page under “General”.

Thanks a lot, this really made my day! ??

<?php
/*
 * Change the display name to default to just the first name using the Force First Last WordPress plugin.

function my_ffl_display_name_just_first( $display_name_order, $first_name, $last_name ) {
	$display_name_order = array( $first_name ,'' );
	return $display_name_order;
}
add_filter( 'ffl_display_name_order', 'my_ffl_display_name_just_first', 15, 3 );
