Allow name section to be hidden
Title:
Allow name section to be hidden
Area:
Profiles
Summary:
An option to allow the name field in profiles to be hidden.
Description:
As stated here:
http://www.dreamwidth.org/support/see_request.bml?id=2155
The Name Field used to hide when custom titles and the name field were the same.
I'm not suggesting this be put back in, since it was a bug what I suggest is an option to hide the name field on the profile (like you can hide your email, location, etc.) regardless of what is put in the custom title.
To me, I prefer not having the name field in my profile since it looks neater.
ETA: Or, if you vote "Should be implemented with changes" perhaps not forcing people to input anything in the name field? Not sure how that would work.
To those who are wondering, this is a choice that I and many others like to have on our layouts, I have grown used to this layout style but I still do not like that section where the name appears, since my other contact info (sans email) is below my bio.
This suggestion:
Should be implemented as-is.
