Find a mod called Chief First Post. It allows you to have a different postbit for the first post in a thread.

Thank you Lynne , but this mod make the first post in every page and i don`t want this !
i just want the first post by as postbit and every post else it postbit legacy

[Lynne]

I think you can just write a plugin then. Perhaps using postbit_display_complete:

if ($post['postid']==$this->thread['firstpostid'])
{
$this->templatename = 'postbit';
}

Thank you Lynne for trying to help me , but i am so sorry because i am Zerro in PHP , so how can i do this plugin ?!

[Lynne]

Take a look at the manual - Adding or Editing a Plugin (http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/add_plugin)

Ok what about:
1- Product
2-Hook location
3-Execution Order
what should i write here ?

[Lynne]

1- Leave as default unless you are making a product also
2- I gave it to you - postbit_display_complete
3- leave as default unless you have problems with it as default

not work :(

[Lynne]

Do you have a modification installed that allows users to pick their postbit style? I use a modification to do that and if I have it enabled, this won't work. If I disable it, it works just fine.

[Subah]

No i do not have this kind of mod :s

[Lynne]

You have the postbit_legacy set as the default? If so, then I'm not sure what else to suggest. It does work on my test site. It's also the same code that they use in Chief First Post (with a bit more to the condition than the one above so it happens on every page, not just the first page).

thanks again :(
