P.S.: The Username is always the Email-Adress (because of a membership plugin) - it's not possible to change that

@janko,

You should change the "Display name publicly as" option value. The following article should help you with this: https://memberfix.rocks/change-display-name-publicly-as/

In case you want to say thank you! 🙂
We'd really appreciate if you leave a good review on the plugin page.
This is the best way to say thank you to this project and the support team.

@asti Thx - the display name is not set as email. But even if I deactivate wpdiscus, wordpress is showing the email-Adress - and I have no idea, why?!

Ok, problem solved. Don't know how, but after deactivation and reactivation of all plugins it works now.
