Real Name In Profile And Postbit
1 Attachment(s)
Please click Mark as Installed if you are using this hack.
What Does This Hack Do?[hr]hr[/hr] This is an update to my 3.7.x version of this hack. A very simple hack to display your real name in your profile and postbit (or postbit legacy), just like here at vBulletin.org. If no real name is entered, then it will not display in the postbit (or postbit legacy). This hack was created because of a request by Hannan here. Limitation with this hack[hr]hr[/hr] People keep asking for usergroup permissions for this hack. While this would easy to implement, what people fail to realise is that User Profile Fields are not controlled by usergroup permissions at all, and even if usergroup permissions were added to this hack, the User Profile Fields would still be viewable by members even if they do not have permissions to use them. User Profile Fields are either viewable by all or viewable by none, this is how they were implemented in vBulletin by design, there is no in between with User Profile Fields. So, I will not be adding usergroup permissions to this hack. vBulletin Version Compatibility[hr]hr[/hr] This hack can be used with vBulletin versions 3.6.0 - 3.8.8. For the v4.0.x version of this hack - check here. Hack Support/Feature Requests[hr]hr[/hr] IMPORTANT: This hack is no longer supported. Install Instructions[hr]hr[/hr] The Real Name In Profile And Postbit Installation Instructions 3.8.xxx.pdf instructions file is included in attached .zip (includes visual instructions). NOTE: If upgrading then just do Step 2 and Step 3 again. Uninstall Instructions[hr]hr[/hr]

Fantastic plugin. Easy installation, clear instructions, and no core code hacks required. Thanks a bunch!

I have added this. It shows when It should in the ACP, but it doesn't show in the "Additional Information".
Any Ideas Please? Many Thanks. |

If it is either 1 or 2, then you should be able to fix it up, but if it is 3, then you are on your own, as I do not support custom templates/styles. |
This is great!
one question tho. Is there any way for it to display the contents of multiple fields instead of just one? I have 2 seperate profile fields for my users real names. First name & last name. something like: Code:
if ($post['field7,8']) |

You will need something like this, to show if just the first name entered or the first and last names entered: PHP Code:
|
That worked like a charm :)

It looks like it works in the about me but does not show up when someone creates a thread. Any idea where I should look first? VB 3.8.2 |

Just to let you know I do not support custom template edits for this hack, but you are more than welcome to try the following. See if the $postbit_userinfo_right_after_posts template hook is in the postbit and postbit_legacy templates, it needs to be added right before HTML Code:
<div>$post[icqicon] $post[aimicon] $post[msnicon] $post[yahooicon] $post[skypeicon]</div> |
So I will insert this line below?
$postbit_userinfo_right_after_posts Thanks for the help!!!! |
I tried several ways and I'm stumped. LOL!
Code:
<!-- post #$post[postid] --> |
Quote:
OK, this should work, from what you posted above, find: HTML Code:
<if condition="$show['reputation']"><if condition="$show['reppower']">$vbphrase[reppower]: $post[reppower] </if><div>$post[reputationdisplay]</div></if> HTML Code:
<if condition="$show['reputation']"><if condition="$show['reppower']">$vbphrase[reppower]: $post[reppower] </if><div>$post[reputationdisplay]</div></if> |
thanks for this nice plugin
|
Great little mod...installed!
Thanks! |
Good Stuff!
|
thank you
|
i wanna change real name to something else, what would i have to change to get it to work, I've tried to change the XML file stuff but then it just comes up with
: purely had u and it doesn't say anything else before it. |
Cannot this be done in "User Profile Fields" by adding a new profile fild ?
|
I require my members to use their real name. This would be great mod. Is there anyway I can make it required they fill in their real names so this will work 100% of the time
thank you |

If you use c&d garage on your site, you will have to change the name of your $template_hook.....C&D uses the same hook for your members garage to show in their template......great mod though.

Hello there,
Seems I have done this after uploading the .xml. HTML Code:
<td width="100%"> </td> Quote:

What I suggest is that you revert the template, as a quick look at the code pasted above reveals that you are trying to mix plugin code with template code. |
hiya, thanks for this plugin very much needed on my forum, is it possible to duplicate it all? as i would like another field permenently on i tried doing copy and paste of the code but i get the fiel number not the name of the field or it repeats real name with the profile field of the one i want?
apart from that very easy to install thankyou. |
Mod is good, but there is a problem, i have installed the mod and its working for the post bits n legacy...
But what i want is to show every where through out site Real name instead of username, which is not happening for me now how can i do it ??? Pleaseeeeeeee help |

Instead of displaying "Real Name" I would like it to just say "First Name" how would I go about doing this?
Never mind, figured it out. |
is there a way to make it appear under the user's title on the forum instead of under where their age/post count appears?
