I'm using 1.7.1 and the console does not display the username on the user drop down menu, it also does not show the username on their profile.
The only user it does show it for is the admin - user 1.
Anyone else who registers just gets a blank box.
Pic attached. Any ideas?

Disable all third-party plugins one by one and see if the problem persists
One request per topic please.

This was one request, it's regarding the username not appearing, I was just mentioning the areas affected.
This happens with all third party plugins disabled, it's the first thing I tried.

Have you done any modifications to the core files? I see the console menu item is changed
as well as some upload form for the files in the center of the web page

They are plugins I developed, and I have just disabled them again, no changes to the core have been made at all.

No need, I have found the issue, basically I have hidden the 'realname' field on my join form, I did not want users to provide that, just pick a username
The console seems to use their 'realname' field from the question data table. Once I manually added in a realname field it worked.
This is annoying, I don't want the realname field on the join page.

Changing admin setting to use username rather than realname solves this.
Solved.
Annoying though!
