If we do an SSO integration with user's username as his social security number or identification number from another webapp, and it is not good to show this information to public. We need to display the name of JForum's user as his real name instead of his username(login ID).
After finishing JForum SSO with user's first name and last name saved.
Here is a guideline for doing this:
1.We need to get user's real name as first_name and last_name from the jfoum_users table. Modify net.jforum.dao.generic.GenericUserDAO.java:
protected void fillUserFromResultSet(User u, ResultSet rs) throws SQLException
{
...
u.setFirstName(rs.getString("first_name"));
u.setLastName(rs.getString("last_name"));
}
protected List processSelectAll(ResultSet rs) throws SQLException
{
...
u.setFirstName(rs.getString("first_name"));
u.setLastName(rs.getString("last_name"));
...
}
public User getLastUserInfo()
{
...
u.setUsername(rs.getString("username"));
u.setId(rs.getInt("user_id"));
u.setFirstName(rs.getString("first_name"));
u.setLastName(rs.getString("last_name"));
return u;
...
}
2.Modify WEB-INF/config/database/generic/generic_queries.sql, add first_name, last_name to the original SQL statement. Here are some queries needing modification:
UserModel.selectAll = SELECT user_email, user_id, user_posts, user_regdate, username, deleted, user_karma, user_from, \
user_website, user_viewemail, first_name, last_name FROM jforum_users ORDER BY user_id

UserModel.lastUserRegistered=SELECT user_id, username, first_name, last_name FROM jforum_users ORDER BY user_regdate DESC LIMIT 1
ForumModel.lastPostInfo = SELECT post_time, p.topic_id, t.topic_replies, post_id, u.user_id, username, first_name, last_name \
FROM jforum_posts p, jforum_users u, jforum_topics t , jforum_forums f \

LEFT JOIN jforum_users u ON l.user_id = u.user_id \
ORDER BY log_id DESC \
LIMIT ?, ?
3.JForum provide a method getName() in net.jforum.entities.User.java, we can modify it as follows to change the order of first name and last name for some languages like zh_CN and zh_TW:
public String getName()
{
String defaultLang = SystemGlobals.getValue(ConfigKeys.I18N_DEFAULT);
if ((this.lang != null && this.lang.startsWith("zh")) || defaultLang.startsWith("zh")) {
return this.lastName + this.firstName;
} else {
return this.firstName + " " + this.lastName;
}
}
4.Modify net.jforum.entities.UserSession.java, add a new attribute "name" and modify some method to store its value:
private String name;
public String getName()
public String setName(String name)
public UserSession(UserSession us)
{
...
this.name = us.getName();
...
}
public void dataToUser(User user)
{
...
this.setName(user.getName());
...
}
5.Modify net.jforum.dao.generic.GenericUserSessionDAO.java

returnUs.setStartTime(rs.getTimestamp("session_start"));
found = true;
}
rs.close();
rs = null;
p.close();
p = null;
p = conn.prepareStatement(SystemGlobals.getSql("UserModel.selectById"));
p.setInt(1, us.getUserId());
rs = p.executeQuery();
if (rs.next()) {
String defaultLang = SystemGlobals.getValue(ConfigKeys.I18N_DEFAULT);
String lang = returnUs.getLang();
if ((lang != null && lang.startsWith("zh")) || defaultLang.startsWith("zh")) {
returnUs.setName(rs.getString("last_name")+rs.getString("first_name"));
