Current behavior

When I try to change my user (admin or not) from profile page, app says that name has been edited correctly and saved.
When checking in admin dashboard or in profile page, user stays Unamed.
I am not able to change user name even on Admin dashboard.
I tried to change an admin user name, and also a normal user name.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Hoppscotch
  2. Fix SMTP with fix from Github
  3. Create users
  4. Try to change username from profile or admin dashboard

Environment

Production

Version

Self-hosted

Same issue here. Also got the admin privilege issue on my first user login (did not gain admin rights somehow). I had to update via database.

@a-camacho I am unable to reproduce this issue in the latest builds. Also you can now change the name from the Admin Dashboard as well. Hence, I will be closing this issue in a few days. If you are still facing this issue in the latest builds, please let us know.
