Follow best security practices I created an admin account with a cryptic user name but a recognizable display name. But the username shows on my profile which defeats the purpose. any way to change that.
Thanks for any help

Hi Earl,
Two things you can do:
1. Hide admin user from members list. This post has some answers:- https://buddypress.org/support/topic/hide-admin-from-members-and-activity/
2. Change the user_nicename field in users table in database, for the admin user.
I suggest going with the first option.
