Easier way to identify admins or other important users

[okrogius]

NO SUPPORT IS PROVIDED!

Basically can insert a word or a picture of your choice in desired location within the thread. I find it usefull as it's much easier for regular users to tell who's who (admins, mods, etc). You can have it show a picturean avatar or another place or jsut have it shows "Group: admin" next to post count and reg date. Have fun.

Demo can be found at forums.gaminguru.com.

$post[specialusername]

[okrogius]

Specialusername from another hack and this are completely different things.

Thanks :)

can you make it so that admins have the image show up as admin and the mods have an image called mod? becauase mods really arnt admins

[Xelation]

nm, Saintdog told me how... to make admins have a certian image other than mods do this...

instead of adding this:

$post[verify] = " ";
$usergroupid=$post[usergroupid];
if ($usergroupid == "6") { $post[verify] = "<br><img src=\images\verify\admin.gif alt=ADMINISTRATOR width=80 height=20></img>"; }

add this:

$post[verify] = " ";
$usergroupid=$post[usergroupid];
if ($usergroupid == "6") {
$post[verify] = "<img src=\images\verify\admin.gif alt=ADMINISTRATOR width=80 height=20></img>";
} elseif ($usergroupid == "5") {
$post[verify] = "<img src=\images\verify\mod.gif alt=MODERATOR width=80 height=20></img>";
}

can someone help me, I keep getting parse errors :(

[Xenon]

posting the complete error would help, instead of just post error....

[Demonslayer]

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/virtuapi/public_html/forums/admin/functions.php on line 69

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: getuserinfo() in /home/virtuapi/public_html/forums/admin/sessions.php on line 328

Hm... It works for administrators, but images won't appear under moderators.

[Demonslayer]

moderators are user id 7, Xelation posted 5 (which is super mod)

[Demonslayer]

all better, I re-coded the hack (with my limited php skills) and now it works for mods, supermods, and admins (and I can easily add other groups :D)

Great Hack! I will be installing later!

[drownedspirit]

i installed it yet its not working, why?

[nymyth]

sup man...this is more or less exactly what im looking for....i was wondering if there was any way an admin from the admincp could allocate an image for a user....like on my board...i have artists and regular users...i wanna distinguish the 2.........anyone know how to do that???

Peace

Works perfect in 2.2.9! Love the hack!! Also thanks to Saintdog!! I follow the example and it work no problems!

This is great, it's working great. I have a question though. Where do I find the usergroup ids at? I only have them assigned to admins right now, but I want it to be both members in the admin and staff groups. I can't figure out the id for it though. Admin is 6, and I tried a whole different bunch and haven't found the right one. it's getting late and I'd like to know where I could find this.
