Updated username is not consistently reflected across the website and referral link

Description: When a user registers, the system assigns a default username. After the user updates their username, the new username is reflected in some areas of the website but the old username continues to appear in other areas. This indicates that the username update is not being consistently propagated across all related UI components and/or referral data. Steps to Reproduce: - Register a new user account. - Note the default username assigned to the account. - Update the username from the profile/settings section. - Navigate through the website and check where the username is displayed. - Check the user's referral/invite link. Actual Result: After updating the username: - Desktop Profile: New username is displayed correctly. - Mobile Dashboard: Old username is still displayed. - Public Profile: New username is displayed correctly. - Invite/Referral Link: The generated invite link still contains the old username as the ref value. Example: https://www.qabash.com/register?ref= Impact: This creates inconsistent user information across platforms and raises a potential concern around referral tracking. The most important point to verify is whether the stale username in the invite link is only a display/data consistency issue or whether it can actually affect referral tracking and invite counts. Evidence: Screenthots attached of- - Desktop View - Mobile View - Referral link

Resolution

Fixed — your invite link and referral code were built from a WordPress field that never actually changes once your account is created, so they kept showing the name you registered with, not any username you set afterward. They now always match your current username. Links you've already shared keep working exactly as before.
