Hi all,

I'm fiddling around with my forums atm. Setup worked and it's all running smoothly. But now I noticed something "strange". When I click on a forum I see a list of posts. As the Author, the User Name is shown (in my Case "Eugen"). But when I click on the Post so it shows it with the replies, I see the "Account" as the Author on the left side (above the stars and title). The "Account" in my case is my NT Account from the intranet (I switched to NT Authorization).

Is that a setting I can switch somewhere (didn't find it in the Admin pages) or do I have to change the actual ASP code?

Thanks for any hints

Eugen

I have noticed the same 'change' from 3.3.

Shame really as I prefered the full name being displayed on our Intranet.

I'll have a look at the code and report back if I find a quick fix.

Regards

Ok, I found a solution with changing the code. Here is what I've done (use at own risk though

In the file topic.asp, change Line 120 from
Member_Name = rsTopic(strDBNTSQLName)
to
Member_Name = rsTopic("M_Name")

Then, change the following section, starting at Line 511 (approx), from

if strDBNTSQLName = "M_NAME" then
rM_NAME = 0
else
rM_NAME = 1
end if

to

if strDBNTSQLName = "M_NAME" then
rM_NAME = 0
else
rM_NAME = 0
end if

That worked for me

Eugen
