[Code 1.4.1] Disable user changing realname

[Spaceman-Spiff]

open Profile.php
search for

Code Select Expand

     </tr><tr>
  <td width="45%"><font size=2><b>$txt[68]: </b></font><BR>
  <font size=1>$txt[518]</font></td>
  <td><input type="text" name="name" size="30" value="$memsettings[realName]"></td>
     </tr><tr>


replace with

Code Select Expand

     </tr>
EOT;
  if ($settings[7] == 'Administrator')
  {
     print "<tr><td width=\"45%\"><font size=\"2\"><b>$txt[68]: </b></font><BR><font size=1>$txt[518]</font></td>";
     print "<td><input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" size=\"30\" value=\"$memsettings[realName]\"></td></tr>";
  }
  else
     print "<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"name\" value=\"$memsettings[realName]\">";
  print <<<EOT
     <tr>


admins will still be able to change their own realname, also admins can change other user's realname

The codes above are used for YSE 1.4.1

Spaceman,
I cannot find this part of the profile.php.

Its a feature I would like to use.
I have tried turning it off in admin, but then I lose the ability to add realnames to whoever i want.

P.S. Is this the same as custom names, as I cannot find any mod that does the same for custom names, but I thought i saw one?

Perfect!
Just one small difference in your script to mine.
I had to change

<tr>
                  <td width="45%"><font size="2"><b>' . $txt['title1'] . ': </b></font></td>
                  <td><input type="hidden" name="usertitle" size="30" value="' . $memsettings['usertitle'] . '" /></td>
               </tr>';

to

<tr>
                  <td width="45%"><font size="2"><b>' . $txt['title1'] . ': </b></font></td>
                  <td>' . $memsettings['usertitle'] . '</td>
               </tr>';

after that it went in fine.
Thanks
