I want my users in the forum to appear semi-anonymously, so they only appear with their usernames, not their real names (full name / display name), how do I change that? I don’t mind coding snippets.

Tantraforum.dk forside

WP 5.2.4
bbpress 2.5.14
theme Spacious by themegrill 1.6.6

untested, but this might do it

add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_author_display_name' , 'rew_reply_change_to_login', 10 , 2 ) ;

function rew_reply_change_to_login ($author_name, $reply_id) {
	// Get the author ID
	$author_id = bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id );
	$author_name = get_the_author_meta( 'user_login', $author_id );
return $author_name ;
}

add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_author_display_name' , 'rew_topic_change_to_login', 10 , 2 ) ;

function rew_topic_change_to_login ($author_name, $topic_id) {
	// Get the author ID
	$author_id = bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id );
	$author_name = get_the_author_meta( 'user_login', $author_id );
return $author_name ;
}

let me know
