The version of the forum is 1.9.6.1.

When a user of the forum changes their "What's your Real Name" it changes the Last Name in the DNN Profile Under Admin > User Accounts.

How do we turn this off?

In otherwords, they can change their Real Name in the Forum and ensure it DOES NOT change their Last Name in the DNN Profile.

Confused as to why this happens...

You can turn the YAF <-> DNN Profile Syncing in the DNN Host Settings of the YAF DNN Module

Thanks tha_watcha,

I'm in the mod, selected Host Settings.

Sorry for being a noob, but it's not obvious to me where this is. Is it some place else?

I see Host Set up, Spam Settings, Login/Registration Settings, Image Attachment Settings.

Did a search on the page for "sync" none found.

I think those settings he mentions are in the module settings of DNN - not necessarily YAF internally. Profile Syncing is a DNN thing mainly, and I think the code for it is part of the DNN module...

I mean the Module Settings inside dnn, which you only see when you logged in Host. When you click on the Manage Link to open the Module Actions Menu, there you find the "Edit DNN-YAF Settings" Menu item which opens the Settings Page.

Thanks for that.

Only problem with that is logging in as Host, going to Forum it logs you out.

Is there a work-around?
