Sorry. That was badly phrased. The first part was for you.

The should be there. They were added completely in 1.0.7...

:confused:

With version 1.08, this is all I see as options in the Admin CP:

Where am i supposed to be able to limit usergroups viewing name change history?

hi!
great modification!

but..is there a way to make the user to change his nickname himself?

thanks!

Is there any way to add a check feature which will check to see if a request is pending?
I had a user submit 10 requests for the same name change because the PM was overlooked.
It would be nice to give the user a message stating they already have a name request pending.

Known Bugs:
No e-mail is sent out to users upon username change. Fix: The next version will include a fix that will respect all the users settings on receiving e-mail from administrators.
The setting for PM sender was ignored within the code and uses the userid of the administrator who changed the username through the administration back-end. Fix: In the next version, revamped settings and improved back-end will now properly use a setting similar to this.

have these bugs been fixed yet?

Thanks

Yes. But not released. My computer won't let me access my localhost. And I have a lot of unfinished features in there...

*Clicks Installed*

Great mod, King. I had a name change thread but this is much easier for me to keep track of.

The next update may be vB 3.7.0 only. I may back-port it and remove vB 3.7.0 only features (like tabs in the profile) and things like that. Hopefully this is good news for some!

Can't wait for the 3.7 version. Good work King!

Can someone help please!!! I'm getting a database error.

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.9:

Invalid SQL:
CREATE TABLE `unreq` (
`id` INT(5) AUTO_INCREMENT NOT NULL,
`userid` INT(5),
`requested` VARCHAR(255),
`username` VARCHAR(255),
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
);

MySQL Error : Table 'unreq' already exists

Run the following mysql query:

[sql]DROP TABLE `unreq`[/sql]

That should work.

Just a suggestion, if possible, it would make it better if we could set a limit in the admin for how often a user can request a name change, I have some doing it weekly, I'd like a way to prevent it so I don't have to check and see if they requested already then explain why they can't.

I actually have a question of my own...

Does this modification check against the regular expression set in the User Registration Options? Because I have mine set to " ^[A-Z]{3,}[A-Z0-9 \.\-\_\']+$ " and I would like to make suggest (if it's not implemented) that username requests get rejected if they do not match the regular expression. An error message (with a custom phrase) to let the users know what went wrong would be very nice too!

Thanks!

That is being implemented for the next version.

That should be done. THe function I use is from vB and I think it is how they check new users against everything.

Is this Hack affected by the Security Token added in the vB 3.6.10 Release? I'm making a list of all the Hacks I have installed and will stop working when I go ahead and upgrade, so that I know which need to be edited and fixed. Please let me know ... Thanks ...

When will the new Release be here?

Yeah, we had to infract someone for makeing about 10 requests in a week.

Most likely. I haven't had time to confirm since I have 3.7.x installed. I will see about giving an update.

If it is affected by the CSRF flaw I will release one by the end of this week. The next major is being restarted cause I have no idea what I was doing and is going to be for 3.7.0

Yeah. I had that feature working but will get it working again.

King Kovifor, yeah I can confirm that it is in fact affected by the new Security Token on 3.6.10 and 3.7.0 RC4 ... Its a really easy fix though (see below) ...

In the modifyusername template FIND:

BELOW that line add:

That's it! I did that and now its working like a charm again. So for those who need this Quick Fix until the New Version is released, there it is ...

Thanks. I should release a 1.0.9 including this fix later tonight (I assumed this would be affected but couldn't test it).

nice...i love this mod since my members always ask me to change their username...i'll wait for the version for 3.7.0
thanks a lot

It should work with 3.7.0 but I haven't done a clean 1.0.x install. I am working for a new updated version to be 3.7.0 only, but that could be a while.

King Kovifor, no problem just glad to help out :up:

I am integrating your fix now.

I just installed this on 3.6.10 and it's working great, thanks! :up:

what is this DS STORE FILE?

That is Mac OS X's way of storing how things are organized in the folder. I believe it is like the Thumbs.db on Windows (if I am not mistaken) but it won't do you any harm. You may delete.

It says this was updated 25 Apr 2008.
What did that update consist of?

Minor template update for the security token that was added in 3.6.10!

Okay thanks. :D

In version 1.1.0, will it include the allowance of an array of admins for the "Administrator Notification" feature listed in the vb options > username request, opposed to just one admin recieving the notification PM?

Would be such a great feature to allow say your site staff, board admins or leadership team to be able to recieve a notification of a username request opposed to just one appointed admin at current.

i'm waiting for this Jeremy! keep up the good work! ;)

Yes. It will most likely allow for this type of notification scheme.

Well glad someone does. I feel like I have been slacking big time since about May of 2007. LOL. But thanks for the encouragement. I think I may take advantage of the user name history in vB 3.7 too.

Great shall look forward to the release :D ^^^^^ Thanks for your response & great work so far!

Thanks for the update and the fix of some functions that didn't work before. Keep up the wonderful work!

I have uninstalled 1.03 (I believe) and then tried to import the latest version. I received this mysql error:

Login into MYSQL using Phpmyadmin, then delete the column 'unreq_perms' before importing the latest product :) ^^^

EDIT:

Or run the query below as stated :)

Looks like the column wasn't dropper properly. You would have to remove the column. You may run this query:

[sql]ALTER TABLE `vb3_usergroup` DROP `unreq_perms`;[/sql]

Then reimport your product.

How to fix, that users can user special chars like < oder > or " ? and that i can approve this nicks without getting an error ?

What is your error?
