Circumvent auto-generate Username with Facebook sign-up

    Hello,

    I’ve just installed BP and SS on my site. For the regular BP registration my developer has been able to circumvent the automatically created user name, which is normally the email address before before the @. That doesn’t make sense to me if you would like to tag people, because that functinally only really works from the member’s perspective if s/he can just type in the first name of the participant s/he wants to tag. So my developer has name changed the auto-creation to the first+lasts name, e.g. @barackobama.

    Now when the SS is installed and somebody registers with Facebook or LinkedIn, the system again takest the email address of the user, instead of first + last name. Is there a way to change this? I just only want tags with firstnamelastname.

    Thanks for your thoughts.

    Hi there,

    You can alter the username using following hook at line number 374 in super-socializer/inc/social_login.php file
    apply_filters('the_champ_hook_format_profile_data', $temp, $profileData, $provider);
