# Overwrites display name

 * For a long while now I’ve noticed that when you change a users’ information and
   click Update from the admin window of wp_crm it overwrites the “Display Name”
   with the users’ email address. This is not good as we don’t want to make our 
   user emails public.
 * Any thoughts as to why?

 * Hello.
 * Check your setting for Standardize Display Names in Main tab – [http://screencast.com/t/fRCNPE1j3](http://screencast.com/t/fRCNPE1j3)

 * Hello
 * I have the same problem and did the change as you suggested and tried with different
   Display name components and it still saves the email as the display-name.
 * Anything else I should look after
 * Best regards

 * Try to disable all third party plugins for investigation and try to disable standardize
   option at all.
