Custom fetch_shouts

[Cold Assassin]

I could figure this out if I had more time on my hands but easier just to ask the scriptor

My question is the system fetches each shout and gets the userid of the shouter... Now I was wondering what I would have to do in order to not use userid, but a added row in the table called alaphuser because these other shouts are coming from a different program / forum, and I want vbshout to read the insert statement, but there is no userid system since its not with the forums.

Its hard to explain.... but pretty much where it uses the userid for the username on the shout, I want to use regular text in the database for the username.

Thanks

To change the table it pulls user info from you'd need to modify the code, but if you just want to get the info from alaphuser in addition to the normal userid, then you can use the $hook_query_ variables from the dbtech_vbshout_fetch_shouts_query hook.

No all I need is pretty much not use userid at all, just use the name in alphauser

EDIT: Ahh.. Nevermind.. I see what ure saying
