    In the design, when the main page layout is reflected as a page, the name that creates the page appears in the shares.

  • If I understand you correctly (and please correct me if I don’t), your issue is that the author’s username (the one they use to log in) is displayed, instead of the user’s display name?

    If the author does not want to correct it, you would need to create a child theme:

    No, I don’t want anything to appear. Normally invisible, the newspaper main page shows the author name as the page consists of pages.

    ?n sayfa = front page

    Since this is the way, the author shows his name. I don’t want him to show it.

    That screenshot was taken from your wp-admin panel?
    That is not accessible to visitors to your site.
    Only contributors / authors / editors / administrators can see a list with the pages, depending on their rights.

    You understood me wrong.
    You need to look at this screenshot; https://prnt.sc/rhu8wj

    I threw this screenshot because of this; the https://prnt.sc/rj2b7

    I add the metadata of the site from the page I marked via yoast seo.
    I mean to you, the name of the person who created the page appears on social media.

    If I couldn’t explain it again, in short, I do not want the name of the page author to appear when I share the homepage link of my site on social media.

    Because when we share the content, that is, when I share an article I wrote, the name of the author does not appear. But it appears when he shares his home address.

    Okay, let’s try going a step back and see if we can figure this out?
    I cannot read Turkish, so having a little difficulty with the language barrier.
    It is hard for me to understand the context of your screenshots.

    If you go to the author’s profile, you should see:
    “Username” (this cannot be changed);
    “Nickname” (this is required, but by default it is the same as the username);
    “Display As” (let’s you choose between the two if the username is different from the nickname).

    What happens if you choose a different nickname for the author and choose to display as their nickname? Which name then shows up on social media?

    If you could test this, it would help to figure out where the problem is.
