66Biolinks related -Directory page - how to customize data displayed?

I want to change the data displayed on the Directory page. Currently the Member's name is displayed as one word even though on the Control panel side it is displayed as separate words. It appears that the Developer has chosen to display the name of the member URL rather than their member NAME, and then displayed a truncated view of their URL link.

I want to display their name as separate words instead of one joined word. Can anyone understand how to do this based on the Developer's code?
NOTE: I'm can poke around in PHP but am not a PHP coder, so just try to learn how the Developer has structured everything and don't like a Coder ( obviously ).

The section that seems to control how the 2 column content is displayed is below.
<div class="row"> <?php foreach($data->links as $row): ?> <div class="col-lg-6"> <div class="custom-row mb-4"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-8"> <div class="d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="d-flex flex-column min-width-0"> <div class="d-inline-block text-truncate"> <span class="font-weight-bold"><?= $row->url ?></span> <?php if($row->is_verified): ?> <span data-toggle="tooltip" title="<?= l('link.biolink.verified') ?>"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-xs fa-check-circle" style="color: #3897F0"></i></span> <?php endif ?> </div> <div class="d-flex align-items-center"> <span class="d-inline-block text-truncate"> <img src="https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/ip3/<?= parse_url($row->full_url)['host'] ?>.ico" class="img-fluid icon-favicon mr-1" /> <a href="<?= $row->full_url ?>" class="text-muted align-middle" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"><?= remove_url_protocol_from_url($row->full_url) ?></a> </span> </div> </div> </div> </div>

I'm guessing that this <?php foreach($data->links as $row): ?> is what is pulling all the data in, but is there another place where I can get more specific like Member name?
 
I know there's got to be some good Coders on Babiato who are customizing 66biolinks. Why don't we share what we're learning?

I'm trying to detangle what the Developer has built to determine how to make custom templates.

Ideally the Developer needs to create a Library feature for both site Theme layouts and BioLink theme layouts. Currently you can create a Biolink background / some colours, but it's not sharable. People have been asking - why no theme library for SAAS users so they can pick layout styles just like some of the other Link in Bio software.

This is a good topic and a way we can also help with learning. If anyone is in a way good with PHP or other related languages to help with the development of this tool, it would be great.

Also, we are not in the 2000 or 90s where website layouts are old. We can work together in creating custom themes for this tool and eventually contribute to helping ourselves and others who are interested.

This is what I was hoping. I had noticed a lot of people downloading 66biolinks, but very few actively contributing or talking about how to customize the software.

I'm a Designer more than a Coder, but the Developer seems to have set everything up in a clear way. The problem is that I still haven't found exactly which files to edit to customize things like a search results page.
