neuro...I once used one of the "Change Username" hacks...but it became too much of a PITA because (if I recall correectly) none of the hacks change OLD messages....so the old username shows as "unregistered".
I went with Carnell Utilities for many other reasons...but the "Sweep and Swap" works GREAT for changing usernames!! IT goes through and changes ALL instances of the old username and updates the threads!! Brilliant utility to have! Whats more, all username change requests have to go through me, so I have a record of not only who IS who...but who WAS who!!
I'll have a look at the script in question later, possibly, but IMHO you will be MUCH happier with the great Carnell Utilities! Oh, and there is NO hacking to do....basically upload the new script, CHMOD to 755 and run it. You can be cool and add a link to it in the Control Panel if you like...or you can just bookmark it...whatever works for you!!
