Hello,
I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?
Thank you.
Hello,
Thank you for contacting support.
Our plugin uses the public name of the author to add the information on the source code so to change this you need to change the publicly available name for this user under WordPress Dashboard > Users > [username].
Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any other questions.
Hi,
But I don’t want the username to be displayed at all in the source code. How can I achieve that ?
Hello,
As we mentioned above, you need to change the WordPress setting for your users called Display name publicly as to something other than the username of your users under WordPress Dashboard > Users and edit the users on the website.
Our plugin will always use what you have set to display publicly in the WordPress settings for the users.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any other questions.
