Hello everyone.

I kind of managed to make it work with the Custom Profile Fields.
Could anyone tell me if it is possible making it parse html? That would completely fix everything up for me!

Thanks in advance!


Old post:

So I continue working out the vBulletin website I have but I stumbled upon a problem.
Currently we want to do another rank-like system, based on levels.

Each level represents the amount of things you may do and the permissions you have to work with on our website and teamspeak.

Since I am basing those levels on the usergroups I'm searching for an alternative way to show a rank name for my members without making a massive amount of usergroups.

For example:
Level 1
Member

Level 2
Member

Level 3
Professional Member

I'm searching for a way that I could easily change the name and I was thinking about the User Rank system. So far fair enough for giving them a normal member name but I was thinking if there is a way to replace the User Rank name with the User Title (if this has been filled in)? Since this system only works based on user posts.

Taking it a bit further I looked into the coding and for me it seemed like this is attached to the usergroup. I found this: {vb:raw post.usertitle} but I'm not sure if I can do something with it.
Is there a way to show the usergroup at any cost even if the user title is filled in?
I also found {vb:raw post.usergroupid} which only displays the number.
I'm not getting any further at the point of playing around with the coding. That's why I bumped into this place!

Help is much appreciated (and suggestions what I could do otherwise too! :))!

Thanks in advance!

Edit: I've been searching even more. Isn't there anywhere a system or a way that allows certain membergroups to edit a custom field to show their "custom rank"? I've been trying pretty much at the moment..

Edit 2: I found out I could use the custom profile fields for my system. Next thing I wonder is if there is a way to use html in them?

I have made a custom level system for my forum, the level goes by the user's posts. When the user rank increases, their Level also Increases.
