Username Changed based on forum

[|Jordan|]

When a user posts in a specific forum, all posts made by them are under a different username. The username must not already be in use by another member.

Eg. On my forums, i have a section for a guild. My username i use in the game is different than the one i have on my forums. I do not want to confuse the people in the guild, but also do not want to register a new account just to post in that forum.

I need this for VB 3.0.x

Is something like this possible?

Just add a new custom profile field for the guild nickname. Then open the postbit template and do the following change:

FIND
$post[musername]
REPLACE WITH
<if condition="$thread[forumid] == 9">$post[field6]<else />$post[musername]</if>

Ofcourse you have to change the forum id (9) and field number (6) to the correct ones :)

Sweet.

How would this be modified to include the username's and currently active user's of the specific forum?
