in a word - yes.

Just an easier way of switching between multiple accounts.

Reeve is correct. Our users, being part of a large scale Role Play, have several accounts, which we would like to make it so that if they log into one, they effectively log into all of them at the same time and can choose via a drop down box, which account they will be posting with.

Bumping to the top in hopes someone will consider this one last time.

Note: Payment is being offered if someone is able to do this.

Hi there...

I wanted to originally come onto this site to find an easy hack for this but realized it's probably not even out.

I'm rather shy about releasing my hacks since I know other people do a much better job...however I believe that there are those who wish not even to TOUCH the coding and I may release it soon after initiial implementation as a result.

Please look at http://www.wildfuryx.com/forum/calendar.php for dates and such.

I'll post the file here.

Hmm, I think I may have an answer, but not exactly what you want.

What you could do is have a table that stores the names of the extra accounts(not really accounts though ) and then have it list them in newthread and newreply, in a drop down box. So for an ORPG board, you could have multiple personalities without the excess accounts. If this interests you, I will write it.

Hi vivi et. all.

That addresses the display issue, not other issues such as character information, behaving as a separate or subaccount, etc.

Currently I have already pseudocoded the one extra field in users, and a new table called characters.

The problem now is everything else, being registration, posting, and character management.

I plan to make subaccount registration and character management a new link BUT must make changes to user information and post display.

This is going to take me a while!!!

Our thoughts were to somehow link all the accounts via email address, but neither Nupraptor nor I possess enough PHP coding skills to really accomplish this at all. I know that our RP community would kill to get their hands on a hack that could allow them to have a drop down in either new topic or post reply screens that would give them the choice of their usernames to post with.

I hadn’t checked this topic in a long time and missed the fact that a couple people showed interest in working on it. I do hope that they still are, and am eager to hear of any progress or even make arrangements to acquire it if it is already done in some workable fashion.

I would think such feature would be useful to non RPG boards too. Basically, if you have 2 or more accounts, it makes much less hassle posting with your alternative ID. For example, you might have one screen name for personal use, chatting or otherwise, the other account for more formal use (adm/mod/support/service etc).

It would prove an invaluable tool. Development is encouraged.

Rather than linking multiple accounts, wouldn't it be easier and better were users to be able have multiple identities for one account? Is there some reason the users' need the multiple accounts other than for changing their usernames?

For Role Playing purposes, it suits most better to have full ability to edit and create an individual profile for each seperate character. With information such as a short biography, in character birth location, in character age, and so forth. At least thats the case at our role playing forums.
