How would I have a profile field determine chatbox visibility

[mandingo]

Based on this vb3x thread:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=1949758

I never got it working.I would like to use this to let the user determine visibility of the shoutbox,visibility of postbit info,maybe other things. Never got it figured out.

tried all kinds of stuff and nothing worked,had the field# right just have the syntax off or something.
Something like this?
<vb:if condition="$post['field7']== 'No'">stuff to see or not see</vb:if>

Why did I put this in the wrong forum?

the $post['fieldX] will only work in the postbit I think.

Try $user['fieldX'] perhaps might work for other area's

If it is you, the viewers, field you are concerned about, then it will be $bbuserinfo['fieldx'].
