That is a good suggestion and i might add it to a next (??) release.

search parse "User Name"

how do you change this to ONLY e-mail, and does it work for 3.5.4?

[futuredood]

to note this works with 3.5.4

These days (3.6.4) it is more like:
Loor for :

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

And replace by:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

It's the same thing, though "infractiongroupids, " is added to the query list

Hi, is there anything similar that can be used for vbulletin v3.6.9?

[Hasann]

Heyy Marco does it work for 3.7.x ?

[abendagar]

Any downside to using

if ($vbulletin->userinfo = $vbulletin->db->query_first("SELECT userid, usergroupid, membergroupids, infractiongroupids, username, password, salt FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE username = '" . $vbulletin->db->escape_string(htmlspecialchars_uni($username)) . "' OR email = '" . $vbulletin->db->escape_string(htmlspecialchars_uni($username)) . "'"))

Isn't it simpler???

[ChrisXX]

So let me get this straight, if I just change this...

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

to this...

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

It will force users to login with their email address, instead of their username?

My goal is to make the username benign, and only for display purposes. The reason is I will be integrating VB in with some other apps that require email, and also use a username but only for display purposes.

Am I correct?

My second question then becomes, if two users have the same display name (for vB, username), will it cause problems? If so, is there a way to rectify that?

Thanks much in advance!

Hi folks -- long time no see...

Just a quick question: Does this hack still work with the current vB release?

[jerx]

Works on vb 3.7.3 pl1. This is the code I used:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

That works, too. Are there any differences between both versions, eg performance, security or stability wise?
