Username Alias Hack (version 2; completely different)

Note:The structure for this hack is COMPLETELY different from the last one. If you have installed the original Username Alias Hack, please revert the changes you made with those installation instructions first. Go Here to see the old hack's info.

Info: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!

The hack now involves a dropdown list of every previous name, and can be placed anywhere inside of your getinfo template.

Here is an example of this new version:

(Note: this is with some modifications of what I am releasing, but in essence, you see the drop down list there )

Also, the Admin CP is completely different. Attached in the next post is a screenshot of what my Admin CP looks like. (This is exactly the same as what I am releasing has) As you will see, the list of previous aliases is displayed, as well as the ability to delete any alias, even the ability to change the current username to an old alias with ease!

Attached is a text file with the updated instructions. If you installed the previous version, REVERT those changes FIRST.

Thanks, and hope you like this one much more





Possible addition in the near future: Admins can see a button next to the alias dropdown list that will allow them to change the username right there to an older alias?
