Changing Display Name with other field from database

Hello – I am using woocommerce fields for registration and would like to use the ‘company_name’ field from woocommerce as the main display name in Buddypress (on profile and members list etc.)

Rather than hack different template files I was hoping to create a function that would replace the existing ‘bp_displayed_user_fullname’ with the woocommerce ‘shipping_company’

I’ve tried various ways but ultimately failed so am hoping somebody might be able to point me in the right direction? please!! 🙂

Use this filter hook:

apply_filters( 'bp_displayed_user_fullname', isset( $bp->displayed_user->fullname ) ? $bp->displayed_user->fullname : '' );

See function bp_get_displayed_user_fullname() in this file
bp-members/bp-members-template.php
