Get logged in username

[doc55]

I'm using the following script to get the userid for the logged in user.

PHP Code:

require_once('/forum/includes/vb5/autoloader.php' );
vB5_Autoloader::register( '/forum' );
vB5_Frontend_Application::init( 'config.php' );
$vb_userid=vB::getUserContext()->fetchUserId(); 


How can I get the username for the logged in user?

The vB_User class at /core/vb/api/user.php has a fetchUserinfo method that will return the userinfo of the current session.

I can't test if this works but something like:

PHP Code:

$userInfo = vB_Api::instance('user')->fetchUserinfo(); 


or

PHP Code:

$userInfo = vB_User::fetchUserinfo(); 


and then read it by accessing the username array key of the $userInfo array.

Perfect. Thanks a bunch.
