 * Thanks for using it!
 * This plugin was only meant to replace instances in BuddyPress and not throughout
   WordPress.
 * That being said, it also depends on where you want to change the display names
   since there are many places in WordPress.
 * If you let me know where, I could perhaps craft a code snippet or point you in
   the right direction.

 * I need WordPress names to sync with BP names as well. Preferably I would love
   for it to all use the WP display names because we already have a large established
   community that use the WP display names and we are just now implementing BP. 
   But I will take either. Would be happy to donate for a custom function or plugin

 * I found a solution with the function suggested at [this link](http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/134415/replacing-default-display-name-to-login-name).
 * I added that function to bp-custom.php rather than my theme’s functions.php.
