How/where could I change the display name on arrowchat from the username to my custom profile field [field6] that is for Full Name?

That can be done in the includes/config.php file.

hey jason, if my custom field is in a different table than the users table where the other info comes from, how can i have the config.php file pull one filed from the custom field table, and pull the rest from the regular users table? i changed the field to match my custom field in my custom table, and the full name worked, but it made everything else not work

using vbulletin4, thanks

That becomes slightly more complex. You have to alter the MySQL statements in the includes/integration.php file as well.

There are examples in the includes/functions/integrations folder.
