Author(s): Ian Spence

Description: Allows you to edit a user's public name via the CP.

Demo: CP MOD

Requirements: UBB.classic 6.7

Download Link: https://www.ubbdev.com/ubb/upload/00020028/EditUserNameinCP.txt

Credits: Gizzy for annoying me until I released it.

Modify Files. Upload Files. Change your least favorite member's name to "Snuggle Bunny".

That is required. This mod will stop working after 1 hour if there isn't a member named "Snuggle Bunny" on your boards.

You're forgetting to update the pdn index...

Are you sure?

Code

		$profile[15] = $in{pdn} &#0124;&#0124; $profile[0];
		.
		.
		.
		my $public_name = $profile[15] &#0124;&#0124; $profile[0];
		&AppendNameList($public_name);
		my $pdnlist = &GetPDNListAsHash;
		$pdnlist->{$u} = $public_name;
		#my @newlist = map { "$_|.|$pdnlist->{$_}" } sort keys %{$pdnlist};
		&UpdatePDNList($pdnlist);

or is the PDN list and the PDN index different?

See, this is why you need to release things, so charles can yell at you :x...

Ah, sorry. I didn't realize that the stock code already did so.

This coming from charles; the one who helped code the stock code... I'm scared now...

I have it at UGN and it seems to be running perfectly.

Heh... I've been working on a lot of non-Classic projects of late (including helping with the Eve migration and working with Rick on getting the Threads importer set up in 6.5)

I get this error, I took the board name off for security reasons

Code

(RequireCode) /home/www/www.board.com/cgi-bin/cp2_membermanage.cgi: syntax error at /home/www/www.board.com/cgi-bin/cp2_membermanage.cgi line 60,

redo the hack, it isn't that long

I have, 4 times, still get the same error

the part of cp2_membermanage.cgi my mod requires you to edit begings at line 667. Your errors is at line 60, 79 and 78.

This error has nothing to do with my mod

It's me again

I added it succesfully but in the Public Name line there's an empty text field, and if I update anything in the profile with out re entering the member nickname it shows the Login Name as the Public Name, and yes I did set a member name "Snuggle Bunny"

Any chance for any kind of help?

try reinstalling it, as I don't know any reason that would happen. This is a simple mod
