    Thank you Brajesh that sounds perfect! I look forward to trying it out.

    -Graham i believe it is extended profile fields that is causing the display name to show instead of nicename. I have run multiple tests and my users only see each others display name at top of the profile. I confirmed this by looking at my user table in the database.

    @DW Okay. That would explain your confusion then. Didn’t realize you were using something that changes what other users see in a member’s profile.

    That would make Brajesh’s idea even more important to you.

    Please give a try to 1.2.0 and let me know if it works or not?

    It will show the block/unblock on the single message thread page(Only when the communication is one to one)

    Hope that helps.

    Hi Brajesh,

    Everything seems to work okay.

    After blocking, the nicename showed in the block list.

    Adding them as a friend did not override the block.

    The button to send a private message disappears from the target member’s profile page for the blocked user.

    Well done,
    Graham
