Auto Username - Request

[Logician]

* You can create 2 profile fields one for name and the other for sirname. Make sure the profile fields are hidden to user (non editable, admins view only) and note their ids.
* You can edit relevant template and remove username field, instead add 2 form textbox fields for name and sirname (note their name).
* In register.php, find:

PHP Code:

$username = trim($username); 


Replace it as:

PHP Code:

if (!trim($name) OR !trim($sirname)) { eval("standarderror(\"".gettemplate("error_fillnamesirnamefields")."\");");}
$username = trim($name).' '.trim($sirname); 


(form field names are assumed to be "name" and "sirname"!)

* Create a template named "error_fillnamesirnamefields" and in it ask user to field to name and sirname fields.

* edit template "error_alreadyregistered" ask user to reenter name and sirname fields.

* find:

PHP Code:

$DB_site->query("INSERT INTO userfield $userfieldsnames VALUES ($userid$userfields)"); 


after that add:

PHP Code:

$DB_site->query("INSERT INTO userfield (fieldX, fieldY) VALUES ('.addslashes(htmlspecialchars($name)).','.addslashes(htmlspecialchars($sirname)).' )"); 


(Replace X and Y with the profile id of your name and sirname fields in vb.)

If I didnt miss anything to edit, this should work.. Don't forget to edit relevant templates to remind user that his username = "name sirname"..
