    Hi,
    Username is for login purpose. Buddypress does not display username in the profile section, it displays “display_name” field of “user_meta” table in the user profile. This is a default Buddypress functionality. That is the reason its different.

    Please let us know if you have any questions on it.

    Thanks,

    Hi there

    Sorry for the late reply, but I did not get an email stating that this thread was answered.

    This is not a display issue, this is a username confirmation issue.

    The person registering gets an email stating their username is jack-black, but their buddypress username is jack.

    The person now tries to login as jack-black, and creates major issues, particularly when running IP blocking plugins to prevent brute force.

    Feel free to register at https://myschoolstuff.co.za/ to see the issue.
