Can I show the Display Name instead of the Username in the Usersonline module, People Online Now section?  I don't mind chanign the ascx file, but don't know what to change.

I am also interested in knowing if this is possible using acsx file editing or other options.

I am running DNN 4.5.3

Did you find a way to do this?

I got it using Display name by altering the "GetOnlineUsers" stored procedure.  I've pasted the SQL below.  Tested for DNN 4.6.0 only.  Use at your own risk.

For a demo of what it looks like, see helpdesk software

Best regards,

Rod.

select UsersOnline.UserID,
       Users.DisplayName As UserName
from   UsersOnline, Users
where  UsersOnline.PortalID = @PortalID
and    UsersOnline.UserID = Users.UserID

AFAIK this is currently the easiest option to implement this.
