Hack By Kaezul (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?u=78279) - ALL CREDITS GOTO HIM.
Original Thread here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=123337) (3.6 version)

I merely just ported a 3.5.4 version with permission


What this addon does:

This addon allows your users to use replacement variables in their posts and signatures which will substitute the viewer's information for the variable, in order to make the viewer of the post think that it's addressed specifically to them.

For example, you are viewing a post/signature and your username is Joe.
If the post/signature (or the post title) contains the text {username}, it will be replaced with Joe, but only for the viewer.

The only problem I have run into is with unregistered members - their info will not display correctly, if at all. I'm not quite sure how to go about remedying this problem just yet. I'm open to suggestions.

This addon will operate on who's online, the navbar, search results, forum display, thread listing, profiles, and single posts. If you are using a third-party addon like vBAdvanced CMPS, the variables will not parse correctly in those addons. Provided that this addon is successful, I may release updated versions to include major products like vBAdvanced and Top X Stats.

I have provided an AdminCP vBulletin Options group to edit which variables can be parsed (see attachment).

Please note that this is only a test. In no way is this hack fully polished and completed.

Here are testing screenshots of the variables, and the result.

This was a trainwreck last time I installed something similar. Must mean I should do it again...

Hello! I see this gag thread is available in 3.54. Thank you so much for doing this!

Do you know if there is a product that will allow it work in vbadvanced? It is leaving the code in there. I believe there was mention of an update for this.

Also, I noticed when you quote someone that has used the code, the code will show up in the quote. Is there a way to replace the code with the actual membername?

Thanks.
