discussion No names seen on peoples profile anymore?

[pjgtech]

Hi, just a small thing, but on the old forum we could see a persons name on thier profile/avatar, but since moving ove to this platform that features seems to have gone.
I always found it useful as it is nice to know a persons real name, rather than just their username (not always the same thing!)
So, is there any way to have that feature enabled on this platform?
In the meantime, I have just added "Call me Peter" to my message signature, so it will show up at the bottom of every message, so could just use that instead if no other option.

Cant remember if it used to show names when we were on this platform before

Must be an easy fix, surely

And dont call me shirley

Actually where everyone elses says active member yours says 'paul'

Aha, figured it out, if you click on your avatar name, eg: pjgtech at top of the screen, then select account details, then scroll down to custom title, you can add your name there, and save it.
Cheers
