    This is no biggy I suppose. I’m just trying to make sure there’s not an issue.

    I noticed today when I was looking for a user that the first name field isn’t being searched.

    I also noticed that my name on one of my listings was appearing one way (Jeff Adams) but it is actually entered as Vegan Jeff with Jeff as my last name.

    I noticed at least that on the front end I can search by first name. So, it’s good there.

    So, I’m just curious if everything is alright and suppose to be this way… Thanks!

    Where is “one of my listings was appearing one way (Jeff Adams) but it is actually entered as Vegan Jeff” – can you share a link?

    WP user search can be improved with 3rd party plugins.

    Hello Alex, thanks for your time.

    I just figured it out. The first name is not searchable. Their “Display name” is though.

    Here’s the user profile https://veganlinked.com/profile/veganwalk/ I suppose it doesn’t really matter at this point. I was just trying to make sure nothing is broken… 🙂 Thanks!
