This is driving me nuts...

I have text that I only want to display in the postbit ONLY if the author is online.

I have tried

<if condition="$onlinestatus==1"> The text</if>
<if condition="$post[onlinestatus]==1">The text</if>

and numerous other random lines of code that do not do this for me.

Please help?

Not sure why that didn't work, but let me check a few things and I'll get back to you.

Thank you so much, even if you can't come up with anything.

Ok, I could not get it to work in the postbit or postbit_legacy template, but here is what I did do to get it to work:

Edit your postbit_onlinestatus template

add this at the end:

<!-- Start Show Text In Postbit if User is Online -->
<br />
<div class="smallfont">
<if condition="$onlinestatus==1"><b><font style="color: #486FA2;">See This text</font></b></if>
<!-- /End Show Text In Postbit if User is Online -->

That will put the text at the bottom of your postbit, but none the less, it works. You can of course edit the font to match your needs.
