Name on comment thread

[Arrie]

I have a pen name for my blog, however, my username appears when I make comments even though I have selected to use my pen name. How do I change this?

In your profile, you should have a “Display Name Publicly As” select box. Am I understanding you correctly that you have your pen name selected in that field but it isn’t being used?

If that is the case, the problem is most likely in your theme. You will need to track down the code that displays the comments and change it. Does your theme have a comments.php? If so, look for wp_list_comments(). Does wp_list_comments() have a ‘callback’ parameter?
