Hi! Is there anyway to show the username instead of Real Name in the Articles?

If you look on my site, “ARTICULOS” and click on any one, you’ll see that shows my realname and not my username.

Will be great if anybody can tell me how to change it!

Hi Gue

In the User Manager, just set your ‘Name’ and ‘Username’ fields to the same, whichever you want to be displayed in the artcile.

The ‘Name’ field is what appears the article, the ‘Username’ field is used to login.

Hope that helps.
Chris

Yes Gue. If you don’t want to display the whole names of the author, you need to modify the NAMEs.
However, you may also retain the authors name. When you add or modify an article, always add a unique name to data field ALIAS and I believe it will alter the “realname”s.

Hope this helps. Goodluck.
