Disable modify name field

    Hello,

    we have created a website for our running club and all the members have a profile in this community. They can’t create their own accounts as we want them use their real names.
    When we create a profile, name field can be modified by the user.
    How can disable this option?

    Thanks,

    This plugin will force usernames only across the site. If your usernames are their real names, that might be a fix: https://github.com/r-a-y/buddypress-usernames-only

    Small caveat from the plugin readme:

    By default, display names are enabled in the member header on profile pages. If you prefer usernames to be shown, add the following snippet to your wp-config.php file:

    `define( ‘BP_SHOW_DISPLAYNAME_ON_PROFILE’, false );

    Hello,

    thanks for answering!
    It would be a solution, but I would like to show names without the possibility of modification from the users in theirs profiles.

    Example:

    User 1:

    username: @Ryan-rh
    name: Ryan Red Harris

    This user will enter with @Ryan-rh, password, and in his profile will be shown Ryan Red Harris. He can modify anything. Just be part of the community with their credentials provided by us.

    Thanks again, if there is no possibility of doing that, we will work about your solution.

    Regards,
