Add a new User::getDisplayName() to return the name that should be displayed in the interface. Add a UserDisplayName hook to allow extensions to give custom display names for users. Add a $wgRealNameInInterface to use the real name of a user as the display name. To start of the first use of the display name functionality tweak SkinTemplate to declare the userdisplayname and use it inside of personal_urls. Comment: $tpl->data['userdisplayname'] may be null for IPs. $this->userdisplayname comes directly from $user->getDisplayName() it will be the ip address for anons. Of course anons don't have real names so usually there won't be any difference from $this->username, but I included it in the change in case someone decides they have a good idea for an extension that changes the display name of an anon user. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
