"created by" field not display Username in filter but only name was created by bendeb

Hello,

I found this bug recently. It seems it worked before, but I'm not sure.

The "created by"field, when used as a filter, not working good => the filter display name rather than username.
Though, in parameters, I set : Value > Display > username
The username displaying correctly in the item view, but not in the filter (replaced by the name).

Is it possible to correct this please ?

See attachment.

Thank you

Hello

indeed we do not have a special parameter for this in field filtering configuration

thus it makes sense to use the parameter we have for viewing

if viewing is set to show 'username' the the field's filters should also list 'usernames'

i have made a fix for it
I have changed the behaviour to be as described above
