On LessWrong.com, the HTML element for author names lacks an attribute that has the full name. In the script I put in a hard-coded lookup table for a few frequent authors who didn’t input a full name into their LW account setting, so that part will continue to work, but on LessWrong.com the script doesn’t show people’s full names from their account.
ETA: Also the script on LW doesn’t work on comments because those are loaded via AJAX so you’d have to add some code to wait for that to complete before replacing the author names.
Why doesn’t it work for LessWrong.com? Just replacing the classname seems to have worked fine for me. Here is the same script for LessWrong.com.
