Baby-Girl Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Please permit the change of our Forum user name. OR, given that this is also our game login name, at least give us the ability to use a display/alias name that is publicly displayed yet leaves the account user-name intact.

dr_mike Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) They use an old version of VBulletin here that involves a software bridge between this software and the Drupal install they use for the main site and (it appears) account information. I don;t recall it being possible with this version of the software unless it was done by the admin. Considering current issues with ticket response time, I don;t see this happening. edit: I don;t recall it occurring with the current v5 either but I don;t have an install handy to check on.

Interesting I didn't realise it was Drupal. I am a Joomla and WP developer and know that there are a number of CMS community plugins and components available. TBH I haven't worked in drupal in 10 years so I haven't the foggiest idea if such things are still developed for that CMS. Thanks for the reply!

Yea, it;s still going. I run a webhosting company that caters to soccer moms and Drupal is one of the major softwares we get our clients to use. I;m sure it can be done with admin intervention but, considering recent threads about ticket response time, I think many folks would be annoyed if time was diverted to that task.
