How can I get my post on my forums to be vertical and not horizontal? I know it is a stupid question, but I have tried almost everything. Thanks!

You mean the user information like here?

vBOptions > Style & Language Settings > Use Legacy (Vertical) Postbit Template

Set this to YES

OMG!!! I didn't even think about that! Thank you so much!

I have one more question? How do you get like custom fields, location, ect. to be seen on the post of a certain user?

in your postbit template find

<div>$vbphrase[posts] $post[posts]</div>

Above or below put

<div>$post[fieldx]</div> where x is the profile field number in the profile field manager (eg field5)

its not working. I went to style manager-edit template- postbit template- (expanded it)- then I went to postbit. I went down and this is the code that I but the <div>$post[fieldx]</div> at:

<div>$post[field5]</div>
<div>
$vbphrase[posts]: $post[posts]
</div>

Instead of "postbit" template edit "postbit_legacy". :)

* peterska2 slaps head

Why did I say postbit when I meant postbit_legacy? :(
