Hi, I am integrating bbPress and BuddyPress and want users to be able to update their public name in one place–the BuddyPress name field. It seems the simplest way would be to modify bbPress to show this BuddyPress field rather than one of the myriad WordPress profile fields.

I know it’s kinda possible to get this to work if you turn on BuddyPress->WordPress profile sync, but this feature of BP overwrites WP first_name and last_name, which is unacceptable in this site. Does anyone know how to accomplish what I’m trying to do?

Thanks!!
