As you can see I have rank images with rank titles on them, what I want to do is disable the default the default rank description in VB.

Can someone explain how to do this without using a hardspace, as I want to close the gap as well.

Are you sure it's not just the User Title? Check AdminCP find a user, for example yourself, and check that the "Usertitle" is set to "No". This may remove it. Otherwise, right click on the text in Chrome or Firefox, then click "Inspect Element". This will bring up Web Developer tools. If you find what the div tag is name as, with it's class or ID, you can then go in AdminCP Styles -> Find in Template -> Div's ID -> search -> Postbit_legacy template -> Remove the line of code where the text appears.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Ricky.

Anyone else wanting to remove it, this is the line of code to look for :

<span class="usertitle">
{vb:raw post.usertitle}
</span>

Remove that and only rank images will be displayed.

Not a problem. This method works for many things in vb, it's just finding the correct code in the correct template. 9 times out of 10, it's only in 1 template, although the odd time it may be in a couple of templates on the same skin. Using the "Inspect Element" option in Chrome & Firefox can be extremely helpful at times :)

I've managed to go through and delete this from individual member's postbit, but haven't managed to find a way to delete them all. May have not done it properly?

If you remove it from Postbit_legacy template, it won't show on any user's postbit profile.
