Show code in theme based on profile option?

[Bomyne]

I'm trying to make something on my siite disabled based on a profile option? I hard coded the item into the theme.

Also, is there a way to do this via which usergroup they are in?

I'm not sure what you mean by "hardcoded". If you're using templates, you should be able to put the code for the stuff you want disabled in an "if" tag, like:

<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo[fieldX] == 'something'">
// code for feature
</vb:if>


or to do it by usergroup

<vb:if condition="!is_member_of($bbuserinfo, X)">
// code for feature
</vb:if>


Of course you need to change the X's and 'something' to the appropriate values.

Thanks. It works perfectly.

On a variation on the second code you gave, is there a way to add that to the postbit template to show a special image or title if the user is in this usergroup?

Yes, just edit the postbit or postbit_legacy template and add something like:

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, X)">
// code for image
</vb:if>


By the way, you can include more than one usergroup if you want, by listing the ids, like:

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 5, 6, 7)">
...

Does that work based on the viewer or the poster?

Basically what i've done is set up a supporter system. Those that donate have the ads disabled (Which is thanks to the second code block in the first post) now i want to add a badge to that users posts to aknowdge they are a supporter. The subscription system adds them to group 12.

Oh right, that would be the viewer. I should have realized if you wanted it in the postbit you probably wanted the poster. In that case just replace $bbuserinfo with $post.

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($post, X)">
// code for image
</vb:if>

Thanks! Works great.
