Sometimes you need to remove user links and show only user nicknames.

You can do it with following item by removing user profile url from the rest api response:

<?php
/**
* Replacing user profile URL
*/
add_filter('better_messages_rest_user_item', 'custom_disable_user_url', 100, 3 );

function custom_disable_user_url( $item, $user_id, $include_personal ){
    $item['url'] = false;
    return $item;
}
