I have replaced the nickname with the real name in the title it of
articles, but it is possible to replace the nickname with the real name
also in the welcome message and in "Who's Online" box and "What's Related" information?
Tnx
Rob

Who's online (put this in lib-custom and make a new block using it):
{
global $_CONF,$_TABLES,$LANG01;
$expire_time = time() - $_CONF['whosonline_threshold'];
$result = DB_query( "SELECT DISTINCT {$_TABLES['sessions']}.uid, username,photo,showonline,fullname FROM {$_TABLES['sessions']},{$_TABLES['users']},{$_TABLES['userprefs']} WHERE {$_TABLES['users']}.uid = {$_TABLES['sessions']}.uid AND {$_TABLES['users']}.uid = {$_TABLES['userprefs']}.uid AND start_time >= $expire_time AND {$_TABLES['sessions']}.uid <> 1 ORDER BY username" );
$nrows = DB_numRows( $result );
$num_anon = 0;
for( $i = 1; $i <= $nrows; $i++ )
{
$A = DB_fetchArray( $result );
if( $A['showonline'] == 1 ) {
$retval .= '<a href="' . $_CONF['site_url']
. '/users.php?mode=profile&uid=' . $A['uid'] . '">';
if (!empty($A['fullname']))
{
$retval .= $A['fullname'];
}
else
{
$retval .= $A['username'];

$retval .= '</a>';

}
$retval .= '<br>';
} else {
// this user does not want to show up in Who's Online
$num_anon++; // count as anonymous
}
}
$result = DB_query( "SELECT DISTINCT uid,remote_ip FROM {$_TABLES['sessions']} WHERE uid = 1" );

Hi Turias,
tnx for help!
no problem with the firs code, but with second code display the error "the php function not exist" in the box of block.
I have followed these steps:
1 - copy your code
2 - edit system/lib-custom.php
3 - paste your code at end of file, before ?>
4 - create new php block
the name of function in lib-custom (with "()") and the name in the block admin (without "()") is equal
Where mistake?
tnx and sorry for my english
rob

Hi Turias
This error, in the block box: " Error in PHP Block. Function, phpblock_wosonline_fullname, does not exist."
yes
Tnx, rob
Quote by Turias: Hmmm. I didn't actually test it (and don't have time right now). What is the exact error you got?
This error, in the block box: " Error in PHP Block. Function, phpblock_wosonline_fullname, does not exist."
And are you sure you set the block to a "phpblock" with function "phpblock_whosonline_fullname"?
yes
Tnx, rob
