It is basically the user_login filtered to conform to URL standards.</p> <p>display_name is not populated in bbPress at the moment. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/login-name-nice-name-display-name-which-to-use#post-17026 Mon, 30 Jun 2008 12:51:09 +0000 jldean 17026@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hi</p> <p>Just fixing the Moderation Hold plugin to update 'Last Poster' correctly when a post is approved.</p> <p>I see the users table has 3 name fields for each user: user_login, user_nicename, display_name. (When integrated with WP, wp_users has the same fields).</p> <p>It looks like the display_name field never gets populated, so which name should I use? What purpose does user_nicename serve?</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
