show usernam in usercp_shell

[Wordplay]

how do i show a user's username in the usercp_shell, i got it to work on one site, but i can't make it work right now, any help?

$bbuserinfo[username]

How about showing us where you are with your code? That's a pretty broad statement. But, it's not a difficult request with some more info.

EDIT: Never mind. The short answer is on the table. :)

Ehm... Princeton has pretty much answered his question -- he obviously knows which template to edit (usercp_shell), so all he needs is the variable.

I figured that $bbuserinfo[username] was obvious and didn't apply. Let's see.

haha... i must be loosin it... i was about to say i tried that... but for some reason i had:

$userinfo[musername]

in there instead... no wonder it didn't work. why didn't i check it?

$userinfo would be used in the "memberinfo" template.
