Steve Bullman Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Not sure how this is happening, but it is. I assume through facebook log in. Can't see any settings anywhere regarding this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark007 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Why through Facebook? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opentype Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 You can set for each of the social media login handlers how display names should be constructed. If you give users the choice to pick a name, but they don't pick one and leave, the account won't have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Bullman Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 Thanks for the reply. I had it set like to not use their facebook name as in the image, and assumed they would HAVE to pick a username, but apparently not? So the only option if using facebook is to use your real name?

opentype Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 2 hours ago, Steve Bullman said: they would HAVE to pick a username Yes. But as already mentioned: they can just leave the page, when they are presented with the choice for a display name. Then you end up with this account in the database, that doesn’t have a display name. I think they are cleaned up after a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Bullman Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 gotcha, so its basically an unfinished attempt at creating an account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark007 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I thinks it is a bug, because it only appears when user cancel the registration process with Facebook, Google or Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
