Weird. I've been out of touch with the WordPress side for too long perhaps.</p> <p>This might be something Sam overlooked in the integration process.

There is a plugin available to do this but it doesn't work on wordpress 2.5.1. I think I may just have to hack the bbPress registraton queries. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/nicknames#post-16218 Tue, 13 May 2008 23:13:06 +0000 paradox460 16218@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>When users on my site sign up using the forum signup, it successfully integrates them into wordpress, but they do not have a nickname, so all comments appear as Anonymous.</p> <p>Normally wordpress would automatically set the display name default to be the login name, but they dont seem to for this.</p> <p>Any way i could edit the BBpress files to make wp have a name? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/character-encoding-in-use-display-name#post-11329 Mon, 08 Oct 2007 11:28:38 +0000 oledole 11329@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I have changed the encoding in my database, from latin 1 to utf8, and everything is ok except for the display of the usernames set in wordpress "display name" and brougt in to bbpress with the "use dispaly name"-plugin. When I use special characters like swedish å, ä or ö, or e.g. é, they show up like �.<br /> I notice that in the bbpress database, special characters that I use in posts are stored with what I think is utf8 in the DB (e.i. they look strange), but/and they all look ok when displayed in the forum. Names in the wp_users "display_name" however are stored with the latin character but show up wrong.</p> <p>The conversion was made following this manual: <a href="http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/06/23/how-to-convert-character-set-and-collation-of-wordpress-database/" rel="nofollow">http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/06/23/how-to-convert-character-set-and-collation-of-wordpress-database/</a></p> <p>Any thoughts on this, anyone? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/latest-reply-by-admin#post-4561 Fri, 16 Feb 2007 17:16:37 +0000 Staffan 4561@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I have the same problem.
