Username used in subscription emails instead of real name

[padavis]

Hello,

Hope you can help here as its a bit of a security issue on a site of ours. What needs to be changed to make the username appear instead of the real name in emails sent to comment subscribers?

Many Thanks!

Yes, you're right. It will be fixed in next release. You also could fix it in your JComments template by editing files:

/components/com_jcomments/tpl/default/tpl_email.php
/components/com_jcomments/tpl/default/tpl_email_administrator.php
/components/com_jcomments/tpl/default/tpl_email_report.php

And replace code:

Code: (php)

<?php echo $comment->name; ?>

with

Code: (php)

<?php echo $comment->author; ?>

Thank you for your bug report!

Hi Smart,

Just upgraded to the latest version and the fix above doesn't seem to have been included as members are now seeing real names again.

Can you please add it to the next release?

Can you please add it to the next release?

It would be included in next major update (JComments 2.3), two latest versions 2.2.0.1 and 2.2.0.2 were security releases and contain only security fixes.
