Hi,

Is there a way to display the real full name of a user (instead of his login)?

Thanks.
Yeah you can make a profile field saying to put your full name Smile

But I want to display it everywhere instead of the login name.
What do you mean?
Instead of displaying for example "jpmonette" on the forum, I want it to display my full name "Albert Richard".
Like a display name. This is also a feature I want to see in mybb as I view it as a security feature. Only 2 other forum scripts have it that I know of. ipb asd smf. I do not know if vb has it as I do not and have not used that.
I'm a bit late to this thread. I had asked a similar question a few years ago and a plugin was the solution. I never created a plugin since I hadn't taken on the plunge of actually switching from smf to myBB. I'm curious now that it's been 10 months since the start of this thread and 1.6 is out now, if anyone found a solution for this?
