Show the Usergroup AND Member Groups in postbit

[Gary King]

This hack will show what usergroups and membergroups a user is a part of, in the postbit.

This is a very simple hack to install, will take only 1 minute or less :)

Screenshot attached below.

NOTE: There are modifications for both postbit and postbit_legacy templates!

Anyways let's get started! :D

Open includes/functions_showthread.php and find $show['messageicon'] = iif($post['iconpath'], true, false);


Above, add: $show[usergroup] = 1;
$show[member_groups] = 1;
$membergroupids = explode(',',$post[membergroupids]);
$membergroups = '';

foreach ($membergroupids as $group)
{
if ($membergroups == '')
{
$membergroups .= $usergroupcache[$group][title];
}
else
{
$membergroups .= ', '.$usergroupcache[$group][title];
}
}
Open postbit template and find: <if condition="$show['reputation']">$post[reputationdisplay]</if>
Below, add <if condition="$show[usergroup]"><br />$vbphrase[usergroup]: $post[displaygrouptitle]</if>
<if condition="$show[member_groups]"><br />$vbphrase[member_groups]: $membergroups</if>


And just add one new phrase, member_groups, with the following content:Member Groups

NOTE: If you are using postbit_legacy instead of postbit then add the new code for postbit, to wherever you want to show up in postbit_legacy, that's all!

Please click install if you installed this, thanks! :)

Hi, Gary!

Same question.... <grin>


How's this hack for vB 3.0 Gold?


Also, which part needs to be surrounded by:


<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo,6)">

<!-- code goes here -->

</if>



... in order to make this hack viewable by admins only?


Thanks, and again - Great Hack! (Hmm... I seem to keep saying this to you.... :) )

Hack works perfectly for Gold, and put the conditionals around the code that you are required to add.

In the postbit template, or the functions_showthread.php file?

[Gary King]

In the postbit template, or the functions_showthread.php file?
<if condition=""></if> only goes in templates :)

[Ocean]

<if condition=""></if> only goes in templates :)

Well that just shows what I know, doesn't it? But I learned something new, so for that - thank you. :)

Could this be changed to show usergroup ranks or rank images?
I'd like to show multiple rank images in the postbit.

[Ocean]

Gary, I just noticed something odd...

I have a bunch of users whom I Mass Moved into another UserGroup. However, although in the "User" Table, the "usergroupid" field shows the correct New Group - the "displaygroupid" field still has their old UserGroup.

Now, I don't know if this is what is supposed to happen or not - however, this hack seems to pull from the "displaygroupid" field, instead of the "usergroupid" field.

As such, a large number of users now show up with the wrong Group info in the Postbit!


Assuming that this is not a problem with vB (in other words, assuming that the "displaygroupid" field is *supposed* to show the old Group) - than what needs to be changed in this hack to reflect the correct field being used?

[Gary King]

Replace $post[displaygrouptitle] with $usergroupcache[$post[usergroupid]][title]

[Ocean]

Gary, I tried the replacement you suggested, and I got a Parse Error.



Parse error: parse error, unexpected '[', expecting ']' in C:\WebSite\forums\includes\adminfunctions_template .php(3037) : eval()'d code on line 74

[Gary King]

In the includes/functions_showthread.php find $show['messageicon'] = iif($post['iconpath'], true, false); Above, add $usergroupname = $usergroupcache[$post[usergroupid]][title];

Then put $usergroupname in the postbit template wherever you want the usergroup to showu p.

[Ocean]

Thanks, Gary! That did the trick perfectly!

Works great, clicked install. Thanks!

[Caiman]

Hope you're still around Gary :) Would it be possible for the usergroups to be displayed with the colour assigned to them too?

Does this work on 3.5.3? Open includes/functions_showthread.php? I dont have a functions_showthread.php.

[JohnBee]

I love this modification! any chance it would be coded for 3.6.4?

[ShannonRawls]

I would like this mod for 3.6.4 as well.
