Hi,
I want to use Fudforum with egroupware on a server administrated by Confixx (http://www.confixx.de/), where users are named webxpy (web1p1, web1p2, web1p3 etc.).
Because I would like to authenticate users by mail account, the egroupware users are also named web1p1 etc.
In Fudforum the users are shown with this name, too - but it would be nice if it could show full user names instead of alias/login name as the author of a topic etc.
Is there a way to replace this alias/login name in a few (main) templates ? Which files I have to change, and which variables I have to use ?
Thank you,
Regards
Karsten

Well, the main templates you'd need to edit would be:
usrinfo.tmpl, index.tmpl, thread.tmpl and threadt.tmpl

It is impossible to anticipate and provide functionality for every possible mod, it would make the forum extremely slow. The code is there, what you want to do is not particular ly hard, simply a lot of boring find & replace work across the templates I've indicated.
