Display the viewers username

[MudkipzRule]

Is there any way to do this on phpbb 3? I saw a link on google for a old mod here for the same thing. URL was broken and I couldn't find the topic. Any help?

Display the viewers username where?

I was thinking in a BBCode but it doesn't have to be that. I'm trying to display the viewers username in Handyman's AJAX Chat. We have custom chat commands that can parse php so it could easily be any type of php code.

In something using the phpBB template system.

Code: Select all

{S_USERNAME}

Or in a php file.

Code: Select all

$user->data['username']

That does not work in a chat, it only displays the shouter's username to everyone.

The viewers username is already displayed in that mod no matter if the user made a shout or not...eg

and I made no message in that chat.

I'm not trying to display their name in the online list, I have chat commands and I was going to make a command like !viewer. So it would be used like: Hello, !viewer.
!viewer would be replace with the username of the viewer.
