Hi,
1. can we change the username construction format from "Full Name" or "email" to "fullname" , we can add our filter, if you could tell us which file to override, so that we remove the spaces and change case via php.

2. Can we autoset permalink same as username when client sets his username (or is auto suggested in case of oauth)?
Hi Usamam,

Kindly find my response for your inquiries below:
1. can we change the username construction format from "Full Name" or "email" to "fullname" , we can add our filter, if you could tell us which file to override, so that we remove the spaces and change case via php.

You mean the Facebook oauth login yes? and may I know what you mean by construction format? where currently you can choose the username to use as shown: http://take.ms/nfT6E

2. Can we autoset permalink same as username when client sets his username (or is auto suggested in case of oauth)?

If the permalink is do not set, it will use username as your default permalink

Hi Usamam,

The function to get name for each user is actually from the file:
.../administrator/components/com_easysocial/includes/user/user.php
under function getName

You're suggested to backup the file that you want to customize beforehand for precaution
