Miscellaneous Hacks - [DBTech] Username Change v1 (vB4)

What is Username Change?
Username Change is Brought to you by the Designer of products such as RPG Inferno and Inferno vBShout and the programmer of RPG Integration v3.

Username Change from DragonByte Tech is a modification designed to allow users to change their usernames at will (within your configured limits, of course).

About Username Change
Your members will no longer bug you for username changes, you can let them change it whenever they want!

It also has a history feature in the member profile, showing a list of previous usernames. This history feature uses vBulletin's own Profile Change history - no additional tables needed!

What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified by us whenever new updates are available.

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps us know how many people are using our work, giving us extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

We appreciate the support!

Love the Mod...

Wish list:

1. A way to register an original username so that they can re-use it later and no other can take it even if it "ages".
2. List the "registered name" below their username in the postbit so that people can see who they are without having to go to their profile every time.

It's doubtful we'll be expanding this mod any time soon, but we'll take them into consideration should we ever release a feature update

Please do not post the full product. If you wish to suggest template changes then please include them in [HTML] tags instead.

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the effort, we'd just rather people didn't distribute modified versions of our products, even on this site

Replace the entire dbtech_username_change_editusername template with:

</div>
<h3 class="blocksubhead">{vb:rawphrase dbtech_username_change_usernamechange}</h3>
<div class="section">
    <div class="blockrow">
    <vb:if condition="$show['dbtech_changeusername']"><label for="tb_editusername">{vb:rawphrase dbtech_username_change_edit_username}</label></vb:if>
    <div>
        <vb:if condition="$show['dbtech_changeusername']">
            <input type="text" class="primary textbox" name="username" id="tb_editusername" value="" maxlength="{vb:raw vboptions.ctMaxChars}" />
        <vb:else />
            {vb:raw dbtech_changeusername_reason}
        </vb:if>
    </div>
    <p class="description">
        <vb:if condition="$vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['usernamechangepermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_usernamechangepermissions['canchangeown']">
            <vb:if condition="$vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['dbtech_username_changedelay'] > 0">
                {vb:rawphrase dbtech_username_change_description, {vb:raw bbuserinfo.permissions.dbtech_username_changedelay}}
            <vb:else />
                {vb:rawphrase dbtech_username_change_always}
            </vb:if>
        </vb:if>
        <vb:if condition="$dbtech_lastchange">
            <vb:if condition="$vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['usernamechangepermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_usernamechangepermissions['canchangeown']"><br /></vb:if>
            {vb:rawphrase dbtech_username_change_lastchange, {vb:raw dbtech_lastchange}}<br />
            <vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['permissions']['dbtech_username_numchanges']">
            {vb:rawphrase dbtech_username_change_numchanges, {vb:raw dbtech_numchanges}, {vb:var bbuserinfo.permissions.dbtech_username_numchanges}}<vb:else />{vb:rawphrase dbtech_username_change_numchanges_nolimit, {vb:raw dbtech_numchanges}}</vb:if>

Hi,

After upgrading to 4.1.3, in "Edit Profile" an error shows up where the Username Change is located: "You don't have permission to change your username. ".

Any Ideas?

Thanks.

[DragonByte Tech]

Please re-check your usergroup permissions, we're running 4.1.3 on DBTech and it's working fine here
