VERSION 2 IS OUT

http://www.vbulletin.org/hacks/index...ack&hackid=993

ONLY use this thread to get the instructions to revert them if you had installed this version.





Does your forum have a number of admins? Ever look at your forum and see a member with 200+ posts and be like "who is this person? i've seen him/her before, but I don't remember this username" cos they had a name change, and changed their avatar and signature as well? I had this problem a few times. Another administrator changed the member's username and I was stumped. So I had this idea for a hack!

Anyways, here's what it does:

In the User Profile, it will display right beside "Search for user's posts." a list of "Aliases" which is what their previous usernames were, if they were changed at all.

Go here for an example of that (this is my profile at my forum): http://forums.crystaldimensions.com/...tinfo&userid=2

-also-

In the Admin CP, there will be an extra field for updating a User Profile, called "Aliases." You can change the Aliases field, but you don't have to, cos the script I wrote automatically appends the old username to that list of aliases. Also, it detects and deletes duplicate entries. Such as if your username is being changed back to "Person" and it was that before, and is now in the Aliases field, it will automatically be taken out of the aliases list. It does one other thing, it only allows a character limit of 70 characters in the list of aliases, but does not end the list with a chopped up username or a comma, instead it cuts off the end of the list to the last comma. If you update the aliases field manually, and the username at the same time, it will override the auto-update and it will update the aliases field to what you entered yourself.

Attached is a text file of the installation instructions! Hope you like it!

Wow. You've just solved a problem we don't have yet. Thanks for the great hack.

And ..... can I add one more "bump" for ZiRu$ ?? That would be very useful, too.

Way cool!
