Hi,
I'm not sure if I've found a bug. Can someone please tell me where wpDiscuz gets the name of a logged-in commenter? The name of the SQL table and column is what I'm looking for.
Check out the attached screenshot to see what name I'm referring to.
For some reason, it looks like wpDiscuz takes the nicename for some users and the first name+last name for others, and the email for others.
I don't understand why this is happening so I would like to check the values in the database, but it doesn't look like wpDiscuz is taking it from where I think it is.
Thanks!

Hi @yoelshortz,
wpDiscuz gets it from the display_name field in the wp_users table.
If this field is empty, it gets from the comment_author in the wp_comments
