Rename a user name?

Hi,

My boss asked me to rename a member account. I looked through my 270 tables and found uname in 6. After checking other tables for the account in question I updated my table and was able to login with the new account. But I thought I should follow up and ask if anyone knows of any other possible conflicts. We have custom user pages and weather links and I want to be sure...cause now he will surely ask again.

Thank, CM

Why the heck are you doing this by going to the SQL tables if you can realise this easy from out the XOOPS adminsection!
Explore the admin section. Find users....... bladiebla

Re: Rename a user name?

Hey Shine,

I knew I could change everything else user related but I did not know I could rename an account. I had a bad experience last week when removing some users...after I deleted a handful of users my gallery no longer worked..the white screen where nothing (sql debug,etc) appeared. I learned from that experience that some modules manage users data separate from the user admin console. Which is why I went looking for possible conflicts.
