Hi,

When the admin profile views the pages of the users they created, can view full username.

But when the user profile views the others pages can't view full username.

We need to see the full username. Some idea?

Can this have to do with the /var/www/html/lib/user.php file?

Thanks.

Hi Joan,

Normally in Mahara a 'basic' user cannot see the username of other users, but an admin can

Most of the places where name is displayed is set by the 'display_name()' function in htdocs/lib/user.php file (approx line 1144).

You could try altering this function:

function display_name($user, $userto=null, $nameonly=false, $realname=false, $username=false) {

by adding a

$username = true;

on the next line

So that non-admins getting to see the username is always true

Cheers

Robert
