Open your functions.php file with some preferred editor notepad + + and look for the following

PHP Code:
function format_name($username$usergroup$displaygroup="")
{
    global 
$groupscache$cache;

    if(!
is_array($groupscache))
    {
        
$groupscache $cache->read("usergroups");
    }

    if(
$displaygroup != 0)
    {
        
$usergroup $displaygroup;
    }

    
$ugroup $groupscache[$usergroup];
    
$format $ugroup['namestyle'];
    
$userin substr_count($format"{username}");

    if(
$userin == 0)
    {
        
$format "{username}";
    }

    
$format stripslashes($format);

    return 
str_replace("{username}"$username$format);



and replacing this

PHP Code:
function format_name($username$usergroup$displaygroup="")
{
    global 
$groupscache$cache$db;

    if(!
is_array($groupscache))
    {
        
$groupscache $cache->read("usergroups");
    }

    if(
$displaygroup != 0)
    {
        
$usergroup $displaygroup;
    }

    
$ugroup $groupscache[$usergroup];
    
$format $ugroup['namestyle'];
    
$userin substr_count($format"{username}");

    if(
$userin == 0)
    {
        
$format "{username}";
    }

    
$format stripslashes($format);
    
    if(
$db->table_exists("nickstyles_nicks"))
    {
        global 
$db;
        
$query $db->simple_select('users''nickstyle'"username='{$username}' AND usergroup='{$usergroup}'");
        
$user $db->fetch_array($query);
        if(!empty(
$user['nickstyle']))
        {
            
$query $db->simple_select('nickstyles_nicks''style''nid='.$user['nickstyle']);
            
$style $db->fetch_array($query);
            
$format $style['style'];
            
$format stripslashes($format);
            return 
str_replace("{username}"$username$format);
        }
        else
