Hello everyone,I had already noticed that, the Usename is displayed in the top left of the sidebar, my question is, can it be changed to another field in my Users table?For example I have a field that is the full name, I would like to show that, instead of the Username.Thank you.

If you yse v2024, you may use the LoginStatusEvent, see Event Listeners, e.g.

AddListener(LoginStatusEvent::NAME, function(LoginStatusEvent $event) {
    // Log("LoginStatus", $event->getArguments()); // Log the content for viewing in log file
    $event["currentUserName"] = CurrentUserInfo("MyFullNameField"); // Replace "MyFullNameField" by your actual field name
});

As mentioned in the Event Listeners link above, you may simply put your code in Global Code server event. It is located under Server Events → Global → All Pages.
