XF 2.0 User name

[Elizabeth]

I'm admining a forum for a friend who is using it for the HOA community she lives in. They are requiring use of real names (it's a very closed forum only accessible to members of this community).

I need to find where to change the registration form template from User Name to just Name or Real Name.

I understand this is an atypical request but it is an atypical forum.

ACP/Appearence/Phrases and search for user_name then edit the Phrase Text to suit.

I may have hunt those down individually cause none of those show in my search.

2 ways,
1. As stated, search in Appearance>>Search phrases>>Text contains: User name. Look for "user_name" phrase.

2. In template register_macros, search and find in line 9:

{{ phrase('user_name') }}

and replace with "Real Name" and Save.

Okay, one question about the second option. Shouldn’t that be real_name or will it read Real Name properly?

You have to replace the entire variable {{ phrase('user_name') }} by Real Name

Thank you...THAT worked.

I knew it was an unusual request. Doing an actual temple modification tends to make me squirrley cause I've futzed up a few in my years.
