Same here. I have it set to sync the logins, but it displays the real name, and I need it to display thier user name.

I had the same issue. Here is a solution.

Open up /administrator/com_smf/functions.smf.php

On line 817 (give or take), you should see something similar to this:

Code:

('$row->name','$row->username','$row->email','".sha1(strtolower($row->username)
. $password)."',UNIX_TIMESTAMP('".$row->registerDate."'), '$hideemail',
".($row->block ? 0 : 1).",'$row->activation')

Replace that with this:

Code:

('$row->username','$row->username','$row->email','".sha1(strtolower($row->username)
. $password)."',UNIX_TIMESTAMP('".$row->registerDate."'), '$hideemail',
".($row->block ? 0 : 1).",'$row->activation')

That should make a new user's SMF display name match their Joomla/Mambo username.

I have tried this too, SMF continues to show real names not usernames, anyway to fix this. Thanks

there are two functions that must be modified.

File: functions.smf.php
Functions: syncMamboToSMF & syncToSMF

syncMamboToSMF

Code:

$query = ""
." INSERT INTO {$smf_prefix}members (realName, memberName, emailAddress, passwd, dateRegistered, hideEmail, is_activated, validation_code)"
." VALUES ('$row->username','$row->username','$row->email','$row->password',UNIX_TIMESTAMP('".$row->registerDate."'), '$hideemail', ".($row->block ? 0 : 1).", '$row->activation')";

syncToSMF

Code:

$query = "
INSERT INTO {$smf_prefix}members
(realName, memberName, emailAddress, passwd, dateRegistered, hideEmail, is_activated, validation_code)
VALUES
('$row->username','$row->username','$row->email','".sha1(strtolower($row->username) . $password)."',UNIX_TIMESTAMP('".$row->registerDate."'), '$hideemail', ".($row->block ? 0 : 1).",'$row->activation')
";
