**Merry Christmas Guys.**  
Currently my forum showing username in topic view section. Is there any way to show real name like this forum ?  
for example My forum is currently showing my username “deb” but I want to show Debashish, Which is my full name.

`enable names` and `display name on posts` should be checked and `prioritize username in ux` unchecked. You can also select `full name required` to force at registration.

Hmmm. I have these set that way:

and

but I’m still seeing posts like this:

(sorry for the screenshot Inception).

What do I need to do to make my site act this way?

And it’s not that names aren’t there, by the way… on usercards, they show up primary, like this:

Check the `display name on posts` setting:

`/admin/site_settings/category/posting?filter=name`

I’ve updated my post #2 above with this, too.
