You can do this without hacking by creating a new profile field and adding this to your postbit template (replace the x with the field id):

<smallfont>Name: $post[fieldX]</smallfont><br>

But if you want it to only show up if a user has entered their name (like vb.org) then you'll need to do it this way:

Go into your control panel and create a new custom profile field called name. Once you've added the new field hold your mouse over the "edit" link next to that field.. At the bottom of your browser you will see the field id # at the end of the URL.. Make a note of it.

In admin/functions.php find:

if ($post[customtitle]==2) {
			$post[usertitle] = htmlspecialchars($post[usertitle]);
		}

Below it add:

if ($post[fieldX]!="") {
$realname="<smallfont>Name: $post[fieldX]</smallfont><br>";
} else {
$realname="";
}

In the code above replace the X in $post[fieldX] with the id of the field that you created earlier. There's 2 places that you'll need to change in that code.

Now go into your postbit template and put $realname where ever you want it to show up.
