How to modify New Members block?

I want to list in my New Member block the real name instead of the user name.

How do you do that?

I've looked at the block template, but I where is the php that sends the vars to it?

it's in modules/system/blocks/system_blocks.php

somewhere in line 286

Quote:

$block['users'][$i]['id'] = $newmembers[$i]->getVar('uid');
$block['users'][$i]['name'] = $newmembers[$i]->getVar('uname');


you can change "uname" to "name". something like this..

Quote:

$block['users'][$i]['name'] = $newmembers[$i]->getVar('name');


then, update your template.. hope that make sense...

happy xoopsing..

Worked perfecly. Thanks.

So my next question. If I want to add a new block that needs to retrieve user info from the DB, do I have to add the necessary php in a new function to that same system_blocks.php?
