Nickname instead of Username

    We’re tying into our ActiveDirectory which sets up the username as the user’s email address but keeps their nickname at first-initial-last-name (ex: jsmith.)

    Is it possible to show the nickname instead of the username? I don’t mind hacking :)

    You’d have to change each instance of the plugin to use the user_nicename (which I’m guessing is how you’re setting the nickname in WP).

    eg.

    `$bp->loggedin_user->userdata->user_login`

    becomes:

    `$bp->loggedin_user->userdata->user_nicename`

    Hopefully that gives you some pointers.
