USERNAME/doc

Description

Adds the username of the registered user viewing the page into the page.

Uses Javascript to replace contents in span with viewing username:

<span class="insertusername">Text_will_be_replace_with_username</span>

Example

<insert name here> is the best. <insert name here>'s userpage is good too.

The user reading will always see a compliment directed toward them and their userpage, no matter who they are.

 }

/* End of the {{USERNAME}} replacement */
