sorta a worthless hack then, and is now, well.. depending.

Are all of your staff in a specific group? or in the same groups? (eg mods are in group 6 admins 5 and smods 7?

Just use the ranking system.

Why would you hack in features that already exsist?

You have styled usernames by groups
You can make a "staff" icon appear by usergroup via ranks or even a template edit.

Don't add extra code when what you need is there.

Actually I would like this too. I use the Ranks for something else (a contribution system) so I would like another "if in this or this usergroup (admin or mods), show this icon" but I dont know how to do it :) not a php guy :)

Just use the ranking system and make the ranks user group specific.

in the templates

<if condition="is_member_of($post, X)">

Change x to the usergroupid you want to display a rank image for and add your own html.

The ranks override the custom usertitle though. So if you use like a store and have titlewars or something, then your SOL for using the ranking system.. correct?

Also, the if condition is great.... until you have about 20 different ones (which I do since I run a clan site) and then it's just a messy bundle of ugly code ;)

Right, here's another example, which I think may have already been addressed:

Vegas, the author of the first post, is one of our paying members (The "Gold Member" image is shown via user ranks).

However, Vegas is also a moderator. I used this mod in 3.0.x to give him a "Moderator" icon as well. Without this, I can't give him that icon, and that's my reason for wanting this mod ported.

But you can use the condition, and you can also use the rank, because multiple ranks are possible in 3.5

OH, I did not know that, will need to look into that.

*Jaw drops*

I was not aware of that!

[apfparadise]

It's great, I ended up doing something else though. You can use User Titles to do it, also. They are now configurable using Html, so I just did it for the Mods and Admins as a html image tag. Check out the thread here:

It works indeed!

(However, you don't get to see its greatness until about 30 posts down)

Just use a postbit modification.

[Cyricx]

Rock on! It used to not let you have more then one rank image :)

Awesome!! Thanks for pointing that out Zachery!

Wham there goes 24 if conditions from my postbit :P
