View Full Version : Remove user post count

Hello, all! I've searched and searched but could not find the answer to this question. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm working on upgrading to vb4.0, and I'm TRYING to get back some of the simple (or so I thought...) mods we did back in 3.x. One of these changes was to remove all instances of user post counts. We prune our forums regularly and it's not useful for us, and we also don't want to start "post competitions" from those folks who just always have to have "the most" of everything. :rolleyes:

I knew what to comment out in the postbit template of 3.x, but I can't figure out what to remove in 4.0. Can someone help me find the proper code to eliminate?

Thanks so much!

This is the code you are looking for. Hope it helps.

Thanks so much for the help, Borbole, but unfortunately, I'm doing something wrong, because when I commented out the text you quoted above in the Postbit_legacy template (the only place I found that text), it didn't work. :( Post counts are still showing. Any thoughts on what step I'm missing?

Again, thanks so much!!

are you possibly using the postbit template, not the _legacy one?

No, it was definitely legacy. That's the only place I found the string. Thanks though, Loco! I appreciate you trying to help!

That code should remove the post count from being displayed in postbits. May I see the link to your forum?

Yes, absolutely! And thank you so much for trying to help!

As you can see, I commented out that line you referenced above. When you go to our test site, you can see that the post number is still listed under "Join Date" on the right.

As you can see, I commented out that line you referenced above. When you go to our test site, you can see that the post number is still listed under "Join Date" on the right.

Any suggestions are very welcomed. Thank you very much for the help! It is very much appreciated.



You are most welcome :)

The thing is that I assumed that you wanted for when using the poster info on the left side. Whereas you are using it on top.

To remove it there, find and either remove or comment out the following code instead at the postbit template.

<dt>{vb:rawphrase posts}</dt> <dd>{vb:raw post.posts}</dd>


It is right above this template hook:

{vb:raw template_hook.postbit_userinfo_right_after_posts}

Let me know how it will go.
