XF 1.2 Hide Username

[Itworx4me]

I would like to hide the username to the Unregistered usergroup and replace it with custom user field. How do I go about this?

Thanks,

Find:

            <xen:username user="$user" itemprop="name" rich="true" />

Surround it with a conditional:

<xen:if is="$visitor.user_id">
      <xen:username user="$user" itemprop="name" rich="true" />
</xen:if>

However, since you want to display something else, you'll want to add an else statement:

<xen:if is="$visitor.user_id">
      <xen:username user="$user" itemprop="name" rich="true" />
<xen:else />
      <a href="#" class="username" itemprop="name">$user.customFields.x</a>
</xen:if>

Change x to the field ID. The above example is for message_user_info. You'll need to find all occurrences and update accordingly.

$user.customFields.x doesn't work. I tried $vistor.customFields.x and that doesn't work either. Any other suggestions?

The last sentence of that quote explains it.

I changed $user.customFields.nick_name and this is what I get:

<xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id}">
                            <xen:username user="$user" itemprop="name" rich="true" />
                            <xen:else />
                            <a !href="" class="username" itemprop="name">$user.customFields.nick_name</a>
                        </xen:if>

<a !href="" class="username" itemprop="name">{$user.customFields.nick_name}/a>

@Sheldon Thank you

 

[Jeremy]

Whoops. I guess that's what I get for writing that code while talking with Brogan about his add-on. Nice catch @Sheldon.

Hah. I didn't do anything, really... I am just becoming well-versed on using customFields. haha.
