 * There’s a small registration modification I would like to accomplish, and it 
   might help others as well. It deals with the registration process.
 * I was wondering if, somehow, I could remove the “Display Name” field from the
   registration file, so new users don’t get asked for a Display Name.
 * Also, can we grab the value for the Username field and assign it to the Display
   Name field? It seems like it could be an easy line of code in either the registration
   php file, or perhaps in some other file.
 * Then, all users have unique display names, and they don’t even get asked for 
   one.
 * If anyone has the answer to this, thanks in advance!
