Hi, this is probably super silly, but I can’t figure out how to change what shows up as creator’s name here:

We’d like it show the name of the podcast, not of the creator himself (so “RHAP” instead of “Rob”).

Its a sequence. If you have a vanity name for your campaign, that is used. If you dont, the first name from your name-surname is used. If there isnt even that (shouldnt happen) then ‘creator’ or a placeholder text is used.

There is a setting which allows you to override that name. Just go to Patreon Settings from WP admin menu and you will find it there.
