When a user signs up for my ProBoards site, I understand they also create a global ProBoards account. Say they make their username while signing up "David". From what I can tell, this will lead to their global ProBoards account being "david" and their Display Name on my site being "david". Is it possible for their Display Name on my site to automatically be capitalized the way they put it in (i.e. "David"), or do they always need to go into their profile and manually capitalize their Display Name?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Hi You can use some css to capitalise the first letter of each word in the display name. .user-link { text-transform: capitalize; }
If you add that to the bottom of your stylesheet, it should catch most instances of where their name appears. Stylesheet: admin > themes > advanced styles and css > stylesheet

Thanks Craig, that's a step in the right direction for me. I know there will be some members who don't want any capital letters and some who want to capitalize more than just the first letter, but I'm guessing with how ProBoards is set up, there's no way to accomodate for that?

They have the facility to change their display name to how they desire, but yes, for the efficiency of the forum, the usernames have to be in lowercase.
