Please click Mark as Installed if you are using this hack.
What Does This Hack Do?
This is an update to my 3.8.x (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=201022) version of this hack, designed to work with vBulletin v4.0.x.
A very simple hack to display your real name in your profile and postbit (or postbit legacy), just like here at vBulletin.org.
If no real name is entered, then it will not display in the postbit (or postbit legacy).
DEMO: View it in action here (http://www.wolfshead-solutions.com/members/1-Mosh).
This hack was created because of a request by Hannan here (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=184410).
Limitation with this hack
People keep asking for usergroup permissions for this hack.
While this would easy to implement, what people fail to realise is that User Profile Fields are not controlled by usergroup permissions at all, and even if usergroup permissions were added to this hack, the User Profile Fields would still be viewable by members even if they do not have permissions to use them.
User Profile Fields are either viewable by all or viewable by none, this is how they were implemented in vBulletin by design, there is no in between with User Profile Fields.
So, I will not be adding usergroup permissions to this hack.
vBulletin Version Compatibility
This hack can only be used with v4.0.0 and later versions.
For the v3.8.x version of this hack, which will also work with v3.7.x and v3.6.x - check here (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=201022).
