In vBulletin 3.8, we could sort of echo or display one of the users' profile fields in the post bit by using this code:
<a href="http://youtube.com/user/$post['field5']">
This would echo the custom profile field5 to complete the youtube channel url.

I need to know how to do the same thing in vBulletin 4.0. I have tried many things with no luck. Thanks!

What have you tried? Have you seen this article on the new syntax - First Look at vBulletin 4 Template Variables (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=217569)?

Just look at the default template, it already has profile field data in it with the fieldX format, just copy it's syntax changing the number.

Got it:
<vb:if condition="$post['field6']"><dd><a href="http://youtube.com/user/{vb:raw post.field6}">{vb:raw post.field6}'s Youtube Channel</a></dd></vb:if>

or:
<vb:if condition="$post['field6']"><dd><a href="http://youtube.com/user/{vb:raw post.field6}">http://youtube.com/user/{vb:raw post.field6}</a></dd></vb:if>
