Отлично!

То, что надо! Одной кнопкой изменяет для всех сразу отображаемое имя. Сразу навёл порядок.

Great plugin

It does what it is supposed to do. Good plugin.

a must have

What is really useful is that it HIDES THE “PUBLIC DISPLAY NAME” FIELD WHEN EDITING USER NOTE: If only the “Last name” is filled in, it takes the username. This topic was modified 8 months,
