I'm interested on your forum service.

And I have a question.

Is it able to add columns on the DB of forums?

There would be a Name column and etc.

I just want to know if it's possible to add column to divide forum members by certain standards.

If it is, let me know how to do it, or the page where the way to do it is written.

Thank you.

If you require custom fields for your forum members you can setup these custom fields in the admin area of the forum.

I have a website where people put in e-mail as an account, and their name.

And as i can't show the e-mail on the forum due to security issue, when people post, their name will be shown.

But when using your forum, your forum verifies people by name which is changable.

So i want to know if there is a way to verify people by their account and show their name on the forum.

It would not auto generate a user name for them. You would need to have something you can use as a username.

I know that, and it doesn't need to be done like that.

There are 3 variables on my site - Account, password, name.

Also there are 3 variables on your forum. - user name, password, e-mail.

I put account from my site to the e-mail part of your forum.

And name from my site to the user name party of your forum.

What I'm asking is that is it possible to verify members on your forum by the e-mail copied from account part of my own site, showing user name variable on the forum.

I think there's no methods enable me to deal with User's E-mail.

I want to identify a user by his/her e-mail addres.

And I want their e-mail address not to be shown on the forum.

Can I make in this way?

And is it able to make another Session like Session("NAME") ?

You would not be able to change the forum to identify users by email address, but then not show the email address as the username. Such a modification would take weeks of development and testing work as you would need to rewrite much of the core code.
