real name instead of username in Vote & Comment

Hi,

If you want to change the label of the "username" field to "real name" on the comment form, you can edit the file "form" of the view "vote" via the menu Display>Views and change the code:

<?php echo JText::_('HIKA_USERNAME'); ?>:

Real name:

Hi,

Yes, that's a way to go about it. However, doing it like that means that you'll have to redo the change after each update.
An alternative would be to develop a plugin with the onBeforeVoteCreate event to force the vote_pseudo value before it's saved in the database.
A simpler approach would be to leave it as is and instead modify the vote / listing.php view file via the menu Display>Views to add the code:

if(!empty($elt->vote_user_id)) {
$userClass = hikashop_get('class.user');
$user = $userClass->get($elt->vote_user_id);
if(!empty($user->name))
 $elt->vote_pseudo = $user->name;
}

foreach($this->elts as $elt) {

Hi,

The IP is set in the vote_user_id column either if you create the vote/comment from the backend, or if you create it on the frontend as a guest (since there is no user account that can be attached)
In such cases, your question of having the name or username displayed doesn't make sense since there is no user account linked to the vote/comment to get the name or the username from.
