[Support request] How to not show author login name in html of a comment reply

[Randy]

Hi,
I noticed today that when you reply to a comment, the author login name is shown in the html surrounding the comment reply.

I would like to not show that.

For example, my display name is Bob Smith. But my login username is bob_smith_bunchofrandomletters so that its harder for hackers to try to guess login names.

But the comment reply includes bob_smith_bunchofrandomletters in the html.

How do we get rid of that??
Thanks

Hi Randy,

The comment system is entirely handled by WordPress core so this isn’t something the theme can control.

I don’t believe it’s very easy to change the HTML markup of the comment system unfortunately – you could check with WP’s support team to see if they can provide some insights.

Hope this helps 🙂
