Mods have different background color in posts?

[Gaileypoo]

Hello,

I'm not sure if this has been done or not, but.. I'll give it a go anyway :D

I'm looking for a hack that will change a mod/supermod/admin/etc 's background color when they post a reply or thread, so that someone of a higher status post will stand out.

Something like that.. anyone wanna try it? haha.. ;) ;)

Thanks :)

Assuming vB 3.5.4...

In the postbit template find:

<td class="alt1" id="td_post_$post[postid]">
<!-- message, attachments, sig -->

And replace with the following:

<td class="alt1" id="td_post_$post[postid]"<if condition="can_moderate(0,'cancontrolpanel',$post[userid],'')"> style="background: #C0EEEE; color: #000000;"<else /><if condition="can_moderate(0,'ismoderator',$post[userid],'')"> style="background: #EEC0EE; color: #000000;"</if></if>>
<!-- message, attachments, sig -->

In the postbit_legacy template find:

<if condition="$show['moderated']">
<td class="alt2" id="td_post_$post[postid]">
<else />
<td class="alt1" id="td_post_$post[postid]">
</if>

And replace with the following:

<if condition="$show['moderated']">
<td class="alt2" id="td_post_$post[postid]"<if condition="can_moderate(0,'cancontrolpanel',$post[userid],'')"> style="background: #C0EEEE; color: #000000;"<else /><if condition="can_moderate(0,'ismoderator',$post[userid],'')"> style="background: #EEC0EE; color: #000000;"</if></if>>
<else />
<td class="alt1" id="td_post_$post[postid]"<if condition="can_moderate(0,'cancontrolpanel',$post[userid],'')"> style="background: #C0EEEE; color: #000000;"<else /><if condition="can_moderate(0,'ismoderator',$post[userid],'')"> style="background: #EEC0EE; color: #000000;"</if></if>>
</if>

Tweak as desired.

Thank you! I was wondering if there was a way to do this via userid (multiple user ids) .. like specify the userids who's posts stand out? or via usergroup?

Thanks for the help :)

<if condition="in_array($post[userid],array(1,2,3))"> style="background: #C0EEEE; color: #000000;"</if>

I don't understand.. do I replace that with something?

Thanks in advance~

Replace:

<if condition="can_moderate(0,'cancontrolpanel',$post[userid],'')"> style="background: #C0EEEE; color: #000000;"<else /><if condition="can_moderate(0,'ismoderator',$post[userid],'')"> style="background: #EEC0EE; color: #000000;"</if></if>

With:

<if condition="in_array($post[userid],array(1,2,3))"> style="background: #C0EEEE; color: #000000;"</if>

And then edit the template.

Note: change 1,2,3 to a comma separated list of userids.

Ah, got it. Thank you so much :)!

If you wanted this to work for an entire usergroup would you replace

$post[userid],array(1,2,3)
with
$post[usergroupid],array(10,11,12)

for example?

[peterska2]

yes, that will work for their usergroup

This was outstanding and simple, tons of thanks for this gem. I'm going to try and play with it to see if I can figure out how to do two usergroupids use two seperate colors.
