$something = format_name($user['username'], $user['usergroup'], $user['displaygroup']);

For coloring you also need to get usergroup and displaygroup from users table, the use format_name function. Like this:

$something = format_name($user['username'], $user['usergroup'], $user['displaygroup']);

That's not what I'm looking for nor is that clear, sorry.

$leader_colored_user = format_name($mybb->user['username'], $mybb->user['usergroup'], $mybb->user['displaygroup']);

$leader_colored_user = format_name($mybb->user['username'], $mybb->user['usergroup'], $mybb->user['displaygroup']);

$user = get_user(1); // 1 = UID

$username = format_name($user['username'], $user['usergroup'], $user['displaygroup']);
