    Display names are not unique.

    I’m going to disagree until the day I die on that. I see huge value in consistency. So presenting the username of user A differently than user B is never going to be a good option, imo. I mean unless you want to go back to the MySpace days and the cluster**** those profiles were. 😂 I'd say pick...

    You could use something different to differentiate the username with edit to the same template. There’s really no limit when doing it via CSS… can have any prefix you want and/or any postfix you want. The @ is just what seemed logical to me… someone could prefix it with “Username: “ if they...

    Yep, it’s super easy with a CSS entry. The @ addition is done with CSS, so could very easily override that with nothing or edit the template it’s coming from.

    Maybe you are overthinking it? It works like this: All usernames are prefixed with @ If a user has a display name set, show that as “primary name” with username as the secondary bit of data. Nothing more, nothing less. I knew in the back of my head people would have issue with the @ prefix...

    Ya, I suspect it’s going to simply be an option. Going to be less time coding that than it is to explain the logic about why it ended up how it is. If someone wants to have nothing differentiating usernames and display names, go for it. 😂

    I’m definitely not opposed to changing it, I do however think that whatever it is needs to be consistent for the site (all usernames treated the same and all display names treated the same). After a lot of trial and error, I landed on the @ for usernames (since that’s already how you address...

    Not so coincidentally, I tried it that way first. It ended up causing some confusion since you already address people with @Username within messages. So presenting display name with the @ (and not usernames) was causing some confusion (at least for my users).

    But then you are presenting usernames differently depending on the user. That’s going to cause confusion issues because then a display name and a username with no display name set looks the same. Covered it a few posts up.

    Isn’t that how it already works? Display name is only shown if it exists. If display name isn’t set, it’s not shown. I think I’m totally not understand what you are going for… 😀

    If the only unique thing is that they are from Brazil, you could make a Cloudflare configuration rule where you set your site to "I'm under attack" only if the visitor is from Brazil. https://dash.cloudflare.com/?to=/:account/:zone/rules/configuration-rules/new If Country equals Brazil, then...

    Like I said, it should work with the same data without needing to import. I haven't tested it firsthand, but the underlying data looks like it should be exactly the same, so I suspect any old ones you have are still there. You could do it like other sites do it, with usernames that include the...
