I installed v1.0.4 today but couldnt find any usergroup options. So then I tried 1.0.3 but when I go to make a request the 'request' button just takes me to blank 'profile.php' page. Could this be a conflict with other mods (sorry if there is a fix for this stuff on previous pages but I havent had time to read through them all :()

You click on the page and it's profile.php?do=requestusername and it is blank? Seems like your plugin is disabled.

No, it just loads to 'profile.php', nothing after it. Its after I enter my username request and click on 'Save Changes'

EDIT: Nevermind I got it working...for some reason when I install the plugin, the template called modifyusername was being created by an old admin who worked on the same site as me, so I just reverted it and now works :)

Great Mod :D

I'm glad it worked. I was away for the week. I'm sorry I couldn't help you!

I got this (and so did several others) but I can't find a usergroup control for it:

I'm working hard on a fix to this. I just got back from band camp so I couldn't work on this... It looks like permissions were never added to your installations.

I read the rest of the thread and figured that out. It's cool, I've reverted to 1.0.3 for now. :)

What gets me is everything works on my local installation.

Something I think that would be awesome, is a username logger in the user's profile showing previous usernames. Also, I had an error saying this Also, when it sends a PM the title is unreq_userpm_title and the text is unreq_userpm_atxt.

Nice catch on the unreq_userpm stuff. And the error is caused my it being in use, or that it is against something defined within the user name rules within vBulletin... I used a vBulletin Function to find that one.

Thank you Jeremy

I had to install the older version because its not working for me.

Nothing is showing in the usercp but I just created a thread in our FAQ section with the link to it www.mydomain.com/profile.php?do=requestusername

Install :)

I installing v1.0.4 and ran into the permission issue as others have noted. I removed that insall then proceeded with v1.0.3, but the option for username requests did not appear in the ACP under user.

I am running v3.6.8 of vbulletin. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You uploaded the files and activated the product?

Hi King! Great Mod! Thanks!

Can you add more than one admin to the notify list?

In the acp is it suppose to show requests with a number behind it or just requests?

Also can you add in for the mod to add a note to the persons profile such as in this mod
Automatically Create Usernote on Username Change

That way when you click ok to approve the name change it adds the note. That would be great if you could do that.

Thanks

SOL

I've never tested it with more then one admin. That would be a good feature... The link is supposed to say "Requests" but I think there is a hook for the index file I could add the number of requests... I have built a username history for this mod.

Hi King, I see the history part in 1.04 now. I am using 1.03. I suppose your working on 1.05? Any timeline when it might be ready?

Great job on this one. Its a big help.

Suggestion:

This product adds the option for username request way down the UserCP page under "Miscellaneous".

I suspect that most members will never see it there.

Suggest you move it to the more logical choice at the bottom of the "Settings & Options" menu.

No time line. Soccer practice is a killer...

The reason it is way down in "Miscellaneous" is because of template hook locations. I've suggested template hooks in all those locations, but none have been added... It was moved to remove hassle on admins who have to install this.

When I go to test it, it says my usergroup doesn't have permission, whats up?

Revert to 1.0.3, 1.0.4 is extremely buggy, why, I'm not sure but I'm working on 1.0.5...

yes I did. The option is available for a user to request a name change in the USERCP but no option to accept or deny the change in in AdminCP

It seems like you are missing the ./includes/xml/cpnav_unreq.xml file.

As I am developing v1.0.5, I feel that it should not be released to the public until I am sure this version actually works... As of this, I am going to have a "Private Beta" period where several users will install and test this. If you would like to apply, PM me. You must have an active e-mail address.

SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE APPLIED, RECEIVED THE NEW VERSION, AND HAVE POINTED OUT PROBLEMS. THE VERSION IS NEAR READY TO BE RELEASED, SO NO MORE PRIVATE BETAS WILL BE ACCEPTED.

umm, I had no problems with this mod until the update that just came out; I uploaded all 2 files & reimported the XML overwriting it & now, when users try to change their username, it says that their Usergroup doesn't have permission for this.

So, I checked the Usergroup permissions after refreshing my AdminCP & nothing there + I checked Username Requests in vBulletin Options & again, no options with User Groups mentioned there.

What gives?

(p.s. - running vb version 3.6.8)

There were major problems. They are all fixed in a version that I have ready that is in testing.

I'm glad to hear it's not just me.
Can you post a reply once it's fixed & reposted?
I subscribed to this thread for it.

Thanks

I send updates not replies.

I can't get it to work with 3.6.8

i can install it fine but when i click on request username it says my usergroup got no permissions same as firefish said

also i have no clue where to put that $template_hook[usercp_navbar_bottom]

at cos im not super good with vbulleting

Okay, when can we expect an update that works again?

I have this usergroup permissions problem too. :rolleyes:

It's in your User CP Shell Template.

Probably tomorrow so I can get it packaged and everything.

This has been fixed. I could also give you a quick fix here if you'd like.

Ok, this are very good news. :)

I?m waiting for the fix... :up:
