Issue Summary

We have everything working well on our Drupal 6.x site and phpbb 3.0.9.

But if a user changes their username in Drupal, this does not get updated in the phpbb database, which is seperate from Drupal's db.

However, the user ID1 (super admin) can make a username change and this does update in the phpbb database. It would seem that this is defined in the module code.

Our settings are:

Drupal set as Master, users can change their own username, and in phpbb, users can change their own username.

Any solutions to the module to ensure users can change their username in Drupal and this gets updated in the phpbb database?

We are desperate to get this resolved :)

Thank you in advance.

This patch works for me.

Make sure to set enable "Allow username changes" under General >> Board configuration >> User registration settings in phpBB3.
