Real names are not showing up in email notifications. Instead it shows the username of the user who wrote the post. This seems to be a bug since elsewhere in discourse it displays the real name when that feature is turned on in admin.
AI-generated summary
The discussion revolves around an issue where real names are not displaying in email notifications, instead showing usernames. tobiaseigen considers this a bug, while codinghorror agrees that full name display should be consistent across the platform, including email notifications. sam views it as a feature request, raising concerns about styling and whether titles should be included. downey and codinghorror suggest implementing a shared function to render identical formatting in email notifications as on the website. Ashwani_Kumar inquires about the status of the update, while Jonathan5 reports that their forum displays both real names and usernames in email notifications when the “prioritize username in ux” option is unticked.
Probably an oversight. I agree that if full name display is on, that should affect email notifications too.
I am not sure how I feel about this, but I don’t feel its a bug, more a feature request.
If we did this, do we also include title? We would need to be super careful with styling.
I would expect it to look “just like” it looks on the web site, or at least as much as possible, so people easily can identify the writer of the reply/topic.
Agreed, a shared function that renders out identically in the html email as it does on the site itself.

このトピックの復活に参加できて嬉しく思います。メール通知にはユーザー名と本名が表示されることを確認しました(私のフォーラムでは「UXでユーザー名を優先する」のチェックが外れています。それが違いを生むかどうかはわかりません)。
