User Modifying Own Profile (Credits enabled)
User ran out of credits
Mod Changing User's Profile

Alright, this code basically allows registered users to modify their own name. Changes appear on every page ONCE you either view a post by them, view their full profile, OR spend enough time on a page with links to their profile (including users online list). A user's whose name has not already been loaded will be loaded once every 30 seconds that you spend on a page.

There's three editable variables.

var _disabledUsers = [ 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 ]; // IDs of users who can't change their names.
var _normalCreds = 5; // Default ammount of name credits. 0 disables the name credit feature.
var _defSite = "http://www.invisionfree.com/"; // Site link to be inserted if they don't have one.

First one, _disabledUsers contains an array of the ID number of users who aren't allowed to edit their own name.

_normalCreds is the default ammount of credits users are given. Setting this to zero will disable the credits feature.

_defSite is the default site that will be inserted into their URL socket if they don't have a website. This is because I use the website socket to store the data, and they need to have one.

Code goes in the Footers.

If you want to host the hosted portion yourself, please let me know via PM... this way I can notify you if there are any changes to the code.

Enjoy.

For those wanting a feature list, here you go. I'll add more and modify as I can word it better.

- Users are able to change their own username. Changes may not be apparent immediately, but if you view a page containing posts or their full profile the changes will be made.
- Changed usernames are visible everywhere.
- If you remain idle on a page, it'll silently get the display names for all users you have not compiled a list of yet.
- Users can have their name change ammounts limited with "Credits". Default ammount is editable. Feature is able to be disabled.
- Mods with ability to edit profiles of users can change their display name and credit ammount
- A user with the ID "1" (the creator of the forum) has unlimited name credits
- You can disable certain users from using this feature.
