When a record is added.

Version 10.8 > $SESSION["UserID"] is storing username in database.
Version 10.3 > $SESSION["UserID"] is storing ID in database.

Why its different and how to control it?

$_SESSION["UserID"] always stored username. My only guess is that you were using ID as a username in version 10.3 or had some additional code that overwrote this value.

What would be the code to store the database ID?

Also, I have a standard user database, when I ask for $SESSION["fullname"] I get the username.

In AfterSuccessfulLogin event you can get access access to any field from the login table, including ID. You can save it in the session variable and use it everywhere.

Another option is to use Security API function currentUserData().
