Artist names now display correctly across the dashboard

We’ve fixed a long-standing issue with how artist names appear on Street Art Cities.

Previously, artist IDs (which looked a bit messy and weren’t always clear) would show up in various places instead of the actual artist names. From now on, whenever an artist creates an artwork, their real name will be saved and shown—including at the top of the dashboard where you pick your role.

This change should make things clearer and more personal for artists and everyone browsing the platform. For those interested in the background, you can read more about this in our community post. Thanks @Andrew_Haysom for sending detailed examples of this bug.


As part of this, we’ve made some big changes to how roles and permissions work across the platform - if you notice any mistakes, please let us know!
