    Is it possible to hide the Loginname on profile page?
    Because that just makes it easier to hack accounts, right?

    might hide from page view – but were there’s a will there is probably a way ………
    You can try in your css:
    ********************************
    /*username*/

    .user-nicename {display:none}

    *********************************

    hi @tarinarmolanya,

    do you really think a hacker needs to read a username on a profile to hack an account ?

    @fuzzielogix
    ‘s CSS trick may hide the display, but the username still appears in the source code. Could eventually be usefull if you need some space on your template, but is completely barren for any other purpose.

    And what about the usernicename in the profile URL and of course in the page title ?

    Don’t waste your time with such pseudo security legends. The interesting place to go for a hacker is your DB and datas, not your template.

    The only thing to do, and if possible to follow, are the recommendation given on this codex article. Dot.
