Re: how does user data get added to the user page (not the profile)?
OK–as I was writing my query last night, I thought that screenshots would probably help to make things clear, so I’ve uploaded some to Skitch: http://skitch.com/danbutcher/. If you start with the oldest one first, you’ll see what my members listing looks like. Image #2 is the user list on the backend: it shows mostly usernames with a few real names. #3 shows what the user info screen looks like for most of the students, with only the username filled in. #4 shows one of the 4 students’ user info page, with complete info filled in (but not by the student–it automagically appeared, it seems). Then finally, image #5 shows two comments on a blog post on my buddypress site: one comment shows only the username, the other shows the full name hyperlinked to the student’s profile. Hopefully, this will make clearer what I’m asking. None of the four students with full info did anything different (that they know of).
