quick help with 2 small issues please

question 1:

when a new member registers and the name is already taken it adds the date next to the name I guess to make it different from the excising member with that name.. can this be change? can we allow member to register with the same name. 

question 2:

on the login box, I looked all over trying to change the text string "Username" to e-mail so that the member knows to log in with the email. I did a search using that key but was not able to change it...

thanks much....

I think I can give you a quick answer to this...

NO

Reason: in some parts of the script Dolphin uses names instead of ID's to identify people. Having duplicate names could make a mess of posts, etc (posts from user A and B get mixed up)

Answer to your 2nd questions: _FieldCaption_NickName_Join

Good luck!

 hello and thanks, I did change _FieldCaption_NickName_Join 

then I cleared cache via ftp but still when the log in box opens it still says Username :/

Change that language key back to what it was. That key is for the join form, so if you look at the join form, the text next to the nickname field is no longer correct. That was the wrong key.

The key you want to change for the login form is _NickName

Note. That key may be used in other areas of the site, so check out the site thoroughly which should be done after any change anyway.

 Great, yes that did the trick... thanks

I do apologies, should have looked better what I copy
