Hey,
I'm trying to integrate Komento with my EasyDiscuss forum and I have one problem. EasyDiscuss has "User's Display Name format" settings and there are "Real name", "Username", "Nickname" options. For the forum I chose "Nickname". Unfortunately, there is no such option in Komento. There are only "Real name" and "Username". I would like the user names to be displayed everywhere in the same format. Is it possible?
Hello Pat,

Hm, currently it is not possible to use "name formats" from EasyDiscuss but it's definitely a very good idea I have added a hack for you in the site by adding the codes below into /administrator/components/com_komento/includes/user/user.php and at line 148 I have added the codes below:

[gist]
require_once(JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_easydiscuss/includes/easydiscuss.php');
$user = ED::user($this->id);
return $user->getName();
[/gist]

In the next version of Komento, you will be able to select the name format to inherit from EasyDiscuss

Thank you very much! This is a very useful feature.

By the way, I noticed that the points in the EasyDiscuss user profile are not updated when comments are added with Komento.

You're welcome.

By the way, I noticed that the points in the EasyDiscuss user profile are not updated when comments are added with Komento.

It seems like that is bug, I will log this issue into our tracker.

Once we release both Komento and Easydiscuss today, you have to update both component to latest version, you have to install those Komento rules point file in Easydiscuss.

By the way, I will update you once we release next version today.

After updating, the name formats can already be changed. Works well, thank you! Unfortunately, EasyDiscuss points are still not updated when you add comments in Komento.

Hi there,

Currently, we cannot access your EasyDiscuss backend using given access credentials. By the way, have you create new point as you can see here http://take.ms/5CGkT. It would be best if you can provide me admin access to your EasyDiscuss backend.

Please advice.

Now you can access to ED backend. There are no actions related to Komento in "Points" menu.

Hi there,

It seems that there no points rule for Komento currently. I have installed them for and you can assign them. I have created and assign one of the point to you as you can see here http://take.ms/WMjIr.

And for other points, you can assign them by clicking on the new button and check for Komento points on rule at http://take.ms/9toyp. These are list of Komento points as you can see here http://take.ms/LZz2N

Please give it a try and see how it goes

It works now. Thank you. Was it my mistake that these rules were gone?
I hope they will not be removed during future updates.

You're welcome.

I would said the mistake is coming from us, because these Komento point rules file not downloadable from our site, we will update this on our website download page as well.

And my colleague already installed these Komento point rules into your site, these will not affect when you update next version.
