Hello
Write to function.php
add_filter ("wpdiscuz_comment_author", function ($ authorName, $ comment) {
$ authorName = "Boss";
return $ authorName;
},10,2);
It doesn't change.
First of all, please remove the extra spaces in the code. It should look:
add_filter ("wpdiscuz_comment_author", function ($authorName, $comment) {
$authorName = "Boss";
return $authorName;
},10,2);
Then navigate to Dashboard > wpDiscuz > Settings > General Settings tab, click on the "Purge comments and users caches" button, then delete other plugin caches as well and check again.
Don't forget to press Ctrl+F5 (twice) on the frontend before checking.
