Although I included the shield in the first post, it is small against the screenshots, so in case anyone misses it I will include it again here.

awesome, thanks

I amended this slightly to separate the icon from the javascript that opens the drop-down menu when you click on a username, and to make the icon link to my staff page (staff.php). I also added a second icon for site supporters, this time linking to the subscriptions page (payments.php). There's a not-condition included because I only want one icon to display but you could remove this. Here is the code I used, where 28 is my usergroup for subscribers and the icons were uploaded to my images/misc folder:

<a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[musername]</a>
<script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("postmenu_$post[postid]", true); </script>
<else />
$post[musername]
</if>
<if condition="is_member_of($post, 5,6,7)"><a href="staff.php"><img src="images/misc/shield.png" alt="Staff member" border="0" /></a></if>
<if condition="is_member_of($post, 28) AND !is_member_of($post, 5,6,7)"><a href="payments.php"><img src="images/misc/award_star_gold_3.png" alt="Site supporter" border="0" /></a></if>

I hope this is useful. :)

Even using your code it still pops up with the popup for me :confused:

Working great for me...thanks! :up:

You're right - sorry about that. I'll see if I can fix the code.

I played around with this idea and decided to use several icons for various functions/features and to place them all in a box below the avatar. Here's the code, where the icons are all from the famfamfam silk collection and the usergroup numbers may differ from yours. I also have a "postinfo" class to box the icons and I've moved a lot of the default or additional postbit information into the icons area, such as my photoplog images, blogs, staff page and subscriptions. Hopefully it makes sense.

<div class="postinfo" align="left" valign="middle">Info:&nbsp;

Nice job! :D

Might have to 'borrow' this code for my site ;)

Thanks for sharing!

Questuion:

Does this show up next to their user name on the index page as well? That is what I am looking to do so that I can distinguish the difference between these folks who are in a different user group.

Thanks

No, just in the postbit.
I suppose what you could do for what you want is to simple paste
<img class="inlineimg" src="images/icons/shield.png" alt="User is a ##YOUR FORUM## Moderator" border="0" />
into the second box of the "HTML Usergroup markup" in the ACP > Usergroup manager

[GeorgeB85]

O have done this, but where do I get the image at? It is not attached, and I see a few posts that shows attached images, but I cant do anything with them....

[rrudeboy]

figured out how to do 2 shields, unfortunately... clicking on them does not yet what i want.

<if condition="is_member_of($post, 6) OR is_member_of($post, 7)"><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td><a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[musername]</a>
&nbsp;&nbsp;</td><td valign="bottom"><img src="images/icons/shield.png" alt="User is a EB.NET staff member" border="0" /></a>

<if condition="is_member_of($post, 6) OR is_member_of($post, 7)"><a href="staff.php"><img src="images/icons/shield_c.png" alt="Site supporter &amp; contributor" border="0" /></a></if>
</td></tr></table><else />

<a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[musername]</a></if>

<script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("postmenu_$post[postid]", true); </script>
<else />
$post[musername]
</if>
</div>

anyone ?

[rrudeboy]

right click and save the image to your pc, then upload to the directory you want them in...

[rrudeboy]

using this code:

<if condition="is_member_of($post, 6) OR is_member_of($post, 7)"><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td><a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[musername]</a>
&nbsp;&nbsp;</td><td valign="bottom"><img src="images/icons/shield.png" alt="User is a EB.NET staff member" border="0" /></a>

<if condition="is_member_of($post, 6) OR is_member_of($post, 19)"><a href="staff.php"><img src="images/icons/shield_c.png" alt="Site supporter &amp; contributor" border="0" /></a></if>
</td></tr></table><else />

<a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[musername]</a></if>

<script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("postmenu_$post[postid]", true); </script>
<else />
$post[musername]
</if>
</div>


created new usergroup (id:19), added some users to that group, as their secondary group but the shield (shield_c.png is not showing, except for the users in group 6 & 7 it does show both shields..)

what's wrong with my code ? :confused:

[rrudeboy]

nobody ? i've been staring at the code for 4-5 hours with out any luck.....

take this part of the code OR is_member_of($post, 7) and copy it and paste it right next to it, and then change the 7 to 19 and it will work.

You just don't have this part OR is_member_of($post, 19) added, which is why it is not showing up.

sorry, not understanding this.... you know i want (for now) a shield for admin/mod (which works) and a different shield for VIP's (which are in usergroup 19)

thanks.

Use the code in this post and it should give you what you want. This is how I have mine set up, and it works.

For a shield for VIPs, upload the image to the same directory that you did it for the "staff" shield, and edit the code to point to the VIP shield. However, I am not that gread with coding to say exactly how to do it, but I know that is the general process.

[rrudeboy]

sorry.... it's not working :(

what's your forum, can i check it out how it looks ? when i put your code in everybody has both shields and the username appears twice..

Well that isnt the code I used. I just took your code and modified it to include what you were missing. Unfortunately I am not good with coding (still learning) so I wouldnt begin to know the code to point to your vip shield.

My webmaster should know. I sent him a link to this thread.

[rrudeboy]

thanks....

others are welcome to jump in, would like to get this working so i can move on to the next cool mod :}

c'mon folks.

[rrudeboy]

nevermind, i switched to using YAAS.
