display name not showing in user edit screen

Dieser Thread wurde gelöst. Hier ist eine Beschreibung des Problems und der Lösung.

Problem:

I noticed that the “Display Name” field is not showing in the WordPress admin user profile, and I suspect Toolset may be hiding it.

Solution:

Create a site backup, then go to WordPress Dashboard > Plugins and temporarily deactivate all Toolset plugins. Check if the “Display Name” field reappears in Users > Profile. If it does, Toolset is affecting the display. If not, the issue lies elsewhere.

Hi,

Would you please follow the steps below to first see if Toolset has anything to do with the fact that the display name is not showing in Users > Profile?

- IMPORTANT STEP! Create a backup of your website. Or better approach will be to test this on a copy/staging version of the website to avoid any disruption of a live website.
- Go to "WordPress Dashboard > Plugins" and deactivate all Toolset plugins.
- Check if you can still recreate the issue.
- If not then it is not related to Toolset.

Thanks.
