The "last modified" line is printed by the function tpl_pageinfo() in
inc/template.php. In order to change that, I created a custom template
set and duplicated that function as mytpl_pageinfo() in main.php. Then I
changed mytpl_pageinfo() to show the full name. So this:
if($INFO['editor']){
print ' '.$lang['by'].' ';
print $INFO['editor'];
}
became:
global $auth;
$userinfo = $auth->getUserData($INFO['editor']);
if($userinfo['name']){
print ' '.$lang['by'].' ';
print $userinfo['name'];
}
Then in the footer section of main.php, replace the call to
tpl_pageinfo() with mytpl_pageinfo().
