You can use this plugin as long as is works for you. There will be no more updates and I won’t answer any support questions. Thanks for your understanding. Feel free to fork this plugin. ### Usage The “Display Name” is the name shown as post author – e.g. “posted by John Doe”. WordPress only allows you to select from a few given values. This plugin changes the Display Name field to a regular text input field where you can type in anything you like. There are no settings. Just install and activate. ### Plugin Privacy Information * This plugin does not set cookies * This plugin does not collect or store any data * This plugin does not send any data to external servers ## Dibu-eegisyo ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/b08b61781f12babd5621d0156e6f6298836673b9391002ad1a87bba33989283d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Perfect!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perfect-8761/)󠁿 [thepluginator](https://profiles.wordpress.org/thepluginator/) 11 Sebteembar, 2021 1 reply This plugin should be a default feature of Wordpress! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/241aed64fb9f038ed146d979d1fb92ebcb00411c2e59f3241edcaba5227c0ad5? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Ultimate Add-On Privacy Protection](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ultimate-add-on-privacy-protection/)󠁿 [webworkworld](https://profiles.wordpress.org/webworkworld/) 14 Diseembar, 2020 1 reply Building a 5-multi-site network that stands on true member Privacy Protection mission so this plug-in and another of Peter’s Plug-Ins, Hide URL Slug, are crucial.
