Hi Qazi,

You can do it in following ways.

  1. You can modify view.edit.php file of a particular module if you want solution only for selected module.
  2. For generic solution you can modify - custom/include/MVC/View/views/view.edit.php
    Inside display function after $this->ev->process() method call use this code. Same code for 1 &2

global $current_user;
$this->ev->fieldDefs['created_by_name']['value']=$current_user->name;
$this->ev->fieldDefs['created_by']['value']=$current_user->id;
  1. You can also modify for generic solution - custom/include/EditView/EditView2.php. Go for this solution only if you can not go for 1 and 2.
    Inside display function put this code

global $current_user;
$this->fieldDefs['created_by_name']['value']=$current_user->name;
$this->fieldDefs['created_by']['value']=$current_user->id;

Thanks and Regards,
