Names on profiles with custom titles
Original Request:
This might be a bit confusing but I'll try to explain.

On my profile you can see I've put the custom title as "Faye Valentine" and my name field is filled in as "Faye Valentine". When I did this it would hide the name field (which I liked) but now it doesn't.

Is there a reason this was changed? I quite liked it as it made the profile seem less cluttered, at least to me anyway. :)

Hi Faye,

Thank you for your report. The previous behavior was determined to be a bug, and a patch was generated and applied to fix it. I apologize for the inconvenience.

If you feel strongly about the behavior and would like to see it reverted, you should submit a suggestion for review. There are two ways to do this. The first is to follow the instructions in the FAQ linked above. The other is to use the new Suggestions generator which is located here: http://www.dreamwidth.org/site/suggest.bml .

Best,
