Glowing Staff Usernames in Posts: 2.2.1 Working Version

[Warlord]

I want to make it clear that I did not write this hack, but it was in the requests forum and with a little tweaking Palmer of Shinra and I have adapted this to work on 2.2.1...

Credits due to everyone who has put in comments and helped out with the beginnings of this hack.

[DelusionalMind]

Fine, tanks.

Just a silly (HTML) question:
how could I change the foreground color of the text within the oultine ? I have black on gray as colors and glowin names in blue arent readable.
Is there any way to make them white glowin blue, for example (only outlined text, of course...)

Thanks a lot

[Shenlong]

it sure works, just 1 problem:

i have the shrink post and the little https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/ thing on my forums, and its showing it as the

[-]
Spawn (glowing succesfully)
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

Well I got something similar, but notice all that space between the usertitle and such....can anything be done about it?

[Bioderm]

try using <*nobr*> and <*/nobr*> around it i think that makes it so theres o line break.

Where should this be placed? In the postbit?

[TheComputerGuy]

I got it working all ood now, Thanks for the wonderful hack....Everyone Glows (http://allforums.net/forum/showthread.php?postid=260#post260)

Members glow Yellow, Super Mods Orange, and Admin Red...

I like it

[Bioderm]

around the user name and the image you want to keep on the same line.

[okrogius]

Is there any way to get the usernames highlighted in the forum threadslist too? ;)

[Warlord]

I'm sure there is.. I'll look into it...

Thanks a lot. Tried myself but forgot opening td & tr .... So the font color didn't affect the foreground of cells...

Bye

This Hack looks great, but I tried to install it, and there appears to be a problem with the "Functions.php" file.

When I apply the hack, and try to go to the forums, I get a 0 Byte file load, and I can't get in.

Any ideas what I may be doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

[Shadowwalker]

I like it, but would this be better, on the users online list, instead of normal, bold, and iltalics(sp), ya?

[Tim Wheatley]

Thanks :) I've modified the html in func to just show red text instead of glowing. Also removed the table and mine shows on the same line. Looks good, thanks.

<b>Parse error</b>: parse error in <b>/home/www/scgdirect/bbs/admin/functions.php</b> on line <b>64</b><br>
<br>
<b>Fatal error</b>: Call to undefined function: getuserinfo() in <b>/home/www/scgdirect/bbs/admin/sessions.php</b> on line <b>323</b><br>

[Airwolfe]

Man, I've tried this thing 3 times and it doesn't work for me. Any reason why it might not work? Peace.

<a name="post$post[postid]"></a>
$post[firstnewinsert]
<normalfont><b>$post[specialusername]</b></normalfont><br>
<smallfont>$post[usertitle]</smallfont><br>
$post[avatar]<p>
<smallfont>Registered: $post[joindate]<br>
Location: $post[field2]<br>
