I am using the following:

JomSocial v. 4.7.8
Kunena v. 5.2.4
Kunena - JomSocial Integration v. 5.2.4

Here is the scenario: A guest makes a post on the Kunena forum. Now, when someone looks at that post, if they are a registered user and logged in, then the name of the author of that post shows their own name! In other words, if I go look at that guest post, it shows up as having my name.

I tracked it down as far as I could to the profile.php file in the Kunena - JomSocial Integration Plugin. At that point, it has a function for getProfileName, where it references "CFactory::getUser($user->id)->name;". If I unpublish the plugin and just use Kunena's own profile system, then there is no issue, so I believe this is a problem with the Jomsocial plugin. I'm not sure who maintains it? Any suggestions?

Thanks!

    I was able to fix it, although probably not in the proper way. I adjusted libraries/kunena/user/user.php around line 750.

    I replaced this:
    return $profile->getProfileName($this);

    With this:

    		if($this->userid == 0 ) {
		
			return $this->name;
			}
			else
			{
		
			return $profile->getProfileName($this);
			}

      Hi
      It would be better if you post it on Kunena forum so they can check your fix and apply it extension if its bug. It also save your work during updates.

        I already did. But this way, people can find the fix here, too, if that's ok, as it is related to the jomsocial plugin.
