You don't need a hack for that. You can add HTML Username Markup to each usergroup giving them colored, bold, and/or italic usernames in the Who's Online, Postbit, Profile, etc.. If you only want it in certain places like the postbit, you can simply add it to the templates with a conditional statement.

If you tell us what you want to accomplish we'll tell you the code. :) If you mean for the HTML Username Markup, it's just a matter of adding the HTML you want. For instance, for an Administrator at my Board, the markup is:

First (left) HTML Username Markup field:
<span style="color:darkblue" title="Administrator"><i><b>Second (right) HTML Username Markup field:
</b></i></span>This gives Admins a bold, italic, dark blue usename with the title "Administrator" as the mouseover caption. :)

ok thanks man ;) :nervous:

see i had a Invison Power Board but moved to VB because IPB 2 cost $200 :disappointed:

and is there a way to see that color is topics/posts?

say if u looked at my name now above my post i would want it to be "darkblue"


one more Question :)

is there a hack to make so when you update your profile / Signature it'll update "all posts" insted of just new ones?

thats one thing i liked a bout IPB :)

You mean the forum legend?

I guess the easiest thing to do would be to edit your forumhome template, finding this code:

<div class="smallfont">
<div style="white-space: nowrap"><phrase 1="$recordusers" 2="$recorddate" 3="$recordtime">$vbphrase[most_users_ever_online_was_x_y_at_z]</phrase></div>
<div>$activeusers</div>
</div>


and beneath it add something like


Legend: <font color="#000000'>Administrators</font> || <font color="#000001">Moderators</font> || etc


That isn't dynamic of course and you'll need to manually update the colours if you change them in usergroup settings, perhaps a hack for this exists though, you should do a search :)
