Fix Comment Block

Sorry for asking this again, I’m not getting much help for something that should be simple to fix.

I’m creating a community forum using the comment block. However, the block will not allow me to link to the username and instead only maps to the actual name of the user. That is a non-starter for a forum. Nobody wants there actual name attached to their posts, they want to maintain some level of privacy.

If I map to any other field it adds the comment, but says it came from a “Deleted User”

Even this community forum uses the username.

I’m trying to avoid using Discourse, especially when I’m at the proof of concept stage.

Hi @BeachAthletes, in this situation, the only option for your use case will be to link the users’ username-containing column to the “Name” field in your app’s Users tab instead of their names. This way, you will be able to show their usernames in the comments block instead of their names.
