Real Name vs. Username was created by drdehart
CB has a setting (Name Format) that also applies to GroupJive. We would like to have a different display in GJ vs the CB profile page. We would like to show real name (username) in GJ, but only username on the profile page. Is there a way to do that?

You could use the username field on profile instead of the formatname field (move to a not shown on profile position) then configure the formatname field to display real name. Alternatively you can edit GJs source to change the field used from formatname field to whatever you want (name, username, etc..).

That helps, thanks - but formatname still shows at the top of the Profile page as the page title: First Name Last Name (username)'s Profile Page. We want only username to show in the title, but both real name and username to show in the GJ Members tab.
Is there a setting to selectively change that profile page title, or do we need to change the template?

Yeah unfortunately the page title is hardcoded. You maybe able to override it using CB Auto Actions with a code action and method as PHP on the before (maybe after?) profile display trigger. You'd then do the below.
Alternative is to edit source in comprofiler.php (sorry, can't help with that).
global $_CB_framework;
$_CB_framework->setPageTitle( '[username]\'s Profile Page' );Alternative is to edit source in comprofiler.php (sorry, can't help with that).

one other thought - is there any plugin or possibility of individual users setting their own preferences of what shows in their profile?

Nope, but my above suggestion is still valid. You'd just substitute in a user editable field such as a text field instead of [username].one other thought - is there any plugin or possibility of individual users setting their own preferences of what shows in their profile?
