I already did it, madman66

But the Nick Name of the people follow show by email adress.

When  i desactivating, Custom Name... its works..

I'm not havingthis problem.. can anyone confirm? JPNARF: could you post a screenshot of the chat window having the problem?

You have to close the conversation windows before the custom names will actually be used.

Finally! Someone else has the same problem.

I confirm, Patchou! I have the same problem (that's why I don't use CN).

It does not show neither the original or the custom name while chatting, and unchecking/checking the "Show Custom Name while chatting" option does not change this (yes, I close the chat window).

About not showing the original nick, I guess it's because the option must be "show contacts by email" for the Custom Names.

I have:

MPlus!: 3.25.106

Edit 2: Solution, at least for me, found here.

If you're using the timestamp feature in StuffPlug-NG, this is the cause.
