Is there a way to make it so that users only have a name option and that usernames are completely hidden \ removed? It’s a fairly formal website so I want people using usernames not display names. Thanks!

You could disable names with the enable names site setting: [Screen Shot 2021-08-20 at 14.26.55] And then change all occurrences of the “Username” text in Customize → Text section: [Screen Shot 2021-08-20 at 14.25.41]

@Falco Is there maybe a way to disable names but just change everywhere in the website it says username to name?

Force only full name

Closest you can get is using Prioritizing full name vs username in the UX
