Brad, hello and good day to you...I have a question that i know may seem a little silly, but i have to ask. How did you get your post count to show question marks?
I think it is so interesting and would most definately help hide how lazy i am on my forums ;) Seriously tho, i do like it...
Is this something you mind sharing? I await your response...Thank you in advance -

It's just a template conditional
Go to
Admin CP --> Postbit Templates --> postbit or postbit_legacy
Find:
$post[posts]
Replace With:
<if condition="$post['userid'] == X">???<else />$post[posts]</if>
X = Your User ID

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid'] == X">???</if>
X = Your User ID
You'll need to throw in an else condition aswell.
harmor19, thank you for your reply. Could you tell me which template, and where i add this conditional? And what kind of else condition are you referring to, and where do i insert it?
I dont mean to sound like such a n00b, but fact is, i am a n00b ;) Thank you for your help in advance -

What about having your user name multiple colors?

I edited my post.
If you're unsure of which postbit to edit remember that vbulletin.org uses postbit_legacy, the information is to the left.
vbulletin.com uses postbit, the information is above the posts.

I've tried to edit it to fit the Join Date, but I get ??? for everything. Here is my code:
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid'] == 1">$vbphrase[join_date]: ???<else />$vbphrase[join_date]: $post[joindate]
</if>

Actually it was my fault so there is no need for me to yell at you for my mistakes.

Thank you for that harmor...I have had peeps act as if i were a dimwit because i didnt quite understand something, or had to ask for further assistance. I, and others like me really do appreciate the kind of help you have given in this thread.
That modification was so simple yet i would have never figured it out w/o your help, but some would have laughed at my question to Brad because it is so simple to them. I feel you were totally respectful and polite and i wanted to acknowledge you for that...Again, thank you! You are an awesome kind of person...Take care -

I appreciate the complements.
I did not know anything about coding so keep with it and you'll learn along the way.
I'm sure having a discussion in a thread such as what we're doing is against the forum rules.
So with that said let this be the last message that does not concern the modification.
