I still can’t seem to figure out why users can’t delete their own replies. How can I add that ability?

Thanks

Damn, sorry. i hate when others do it and I end up doing it myself…

This goes in functions.php

[J]

add_action( 'init', 'nicenames_to_display_name' );
function nicenames_to_display_name() {
    foreach ( get_users() as $user ) {
		if ( $user->data->user_status == 0 && $user->data->user_nicename != $user->data->display_name ) {
			$user_ids[] = $user->ID;
		}
	}
	foreach( $user_ids as $uid ) {
		$info = get_userdata( $uid );
		$display_name = $info->data->display_name;
		if ($display_name) {
			$args = array(
				'ID'            => $uid,
				'user_nicename' => strtolower(str_replace(" ", "_", $display_name))
			);
			wp_update_user( $args );
		}
	}
}

How did you customize it? I am trying to changing from username to nickname or displayname or even user ID. any idea?

and did you solve the issue in 2.3.2?

Thanks

I did make a new topic 3 weeks ago and it got zero replies: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/user-profile-url-uses-the-username-can-that-be-changed/

I am really stuck…

It is 3 years later and I am having the same issue. My entire wordpress system is set up with emails as the usernames.

You mentioned you found a workaround or figured it out. how did you do it?

The bbpress user profiles show the email address in the url and I was trying to get bbpress to use something else like display name or nickname instead.

Is there a way to do it?

Thanks
