How to read the post id inside a postbit template?

[slimdude]

Hi. I've made some minor modifications to our vbulletin installation. In short, we need to read the post id of a post inside a template (namely, the postbit_onlinestatus template). I've already tried using {vb:raw post.postid}, {vb:raw post.id} and even {vb:raw postid}. None which seem to work. What would be the correct way or getting the post id?

I'm sorry if this has been posted already somewhere, but trust me, I've searched the forums and could not get an answer.

Thank you.

If you look in the code for where the postbit_onlinestatus template is rendered, you'll see no post variables are registered for use in that template:
$templater = vB_Template::create('postbit_onlinestatus');
$templater->register('onlinestatus', $onlinestatus);
$templater->register('user', $user);
$user['onlinestatus'] = $templater->render();

And, if you look at the code (includes/functions_bigthree.php), you'll see the post variable isn't even available in the function.

Why do you need it in that template?
