Help with first name display was created by okkhalid
Hello,

I'm using Community Builder latest version in my site,
what I want is to write in big font <h2> in the middle top of the page, when some one login to our site a welcome message with the first name:

Example:

Hello, (First Name), welcome to our website, please select on of the icon to start your navigation



not sure, should I use a custom html module to do this but not sure if I need to add social codes?

please can you help.

You can use substitutions in a CB Content module if you want it displayed on the top of any page other than profile. If you just want it displayed at the top of their profile then create a new tab and add a Custom HTML field to it with a substitution for their name. See the below regarding substitution usage.

www.joomlapolis.com/documentation/279-community-builder/tutorials/18353-using-substitutions-throughout-cb

For example in your CB Content module you could have "Hello [name]!".
