Usergroup Post Color

[KBV]

Hey, I was wondering if anyone could make a hack that makes all posts made by the admin usergroup show up in a different color. Like on the Blizzard forums where all blizzard staff posts are shown in blue and now white.

Thank you.

It would't be a hack, I guess it would be more of a template mod ;).

I think this would work, but I cant check :

In your postbit template, find:


$post[message]


Now, replace with:


<if condition="$post[usergroupid]=6">
<font color="#XXXXXX">
$post[message]
</font>
</if>


Good luck, and let me know if it worked :)

i would suggest you try:
<if condition="$post[usergroupid]=6">
<font color="#XXXXXX">
</if>
$post[message]
<if condition="$post[usergroupid]=6">
</font>
</if>

Ot post would never show up anymore if not usergroup = 6 :D

It works, but everyone gets that color. :P

<if condition="$post[usergroupid]==6">

This worked like a charm, it lacked a second = I also changed the font tag to style so that it's XHTML compatible.

If you want to exclude forums use<!-- message -->
<div>
<if condition="$post[usergroupid]==6 AND $forum[forumid]!=XX">
<div style="color: #CC0000">
</if>
$post[message]
<if condition="$post[usergroupid]==6 AND $forum[forumid]!=XX">
</div>
</if>
</div>

Can any one help me, if i want to put a background image on it (like a water mark)?
And i last, is it possible to add a image next to a post title if an admin posted in it?
Thanks in advanced guys/girls!

[Mastergumble]

I didn't got this working for me :/

What i want to change is the background color of the post for admin/moderators

Any help on how to do it ?

[DataHero]

Pardon me for the major bump.

This didn't work here either. The top code that KBV posted ("=" instead of "==") results in the case where all users have this specified colour when posting. I tried the one Marco posted, but that one did not work in terms of colour (nor individually, I think).

It'd be greatly appreciated if I could get some assistance on this matter. :)

EDIT - nevermind, figured it out. Thanks anyway, nontheless.

I think its the $post[usergroupid] no?

[BirdOPrey5]

It's working for me... get rid of all that extra / useless code, simply replace:


{vb:raw post.message}


with:


<vb:if condition ="$post[usergroupid]==10">
<span style="color: #0000FF">
</vb:if>
{vb:raw post.message}
<vb:if condition ="$post[usergroupid]==10">
</span>
</vb:if>


It has to be <span> tags too... div doesn't work the same way.

Are you using vBulletin 4.x? If so what version exactly?

[Ellendway]

Can I somehow add this thing to postbit_display_complete hook with forum ID? It's just a bit annoying to add code to every template..

Anyway can I somehow short whole code?

<vb:if condition ="$post[usergroupid]==6">
<span style="color: #0000FF">
</vb:if>
<vb:if condition ="$post[usergroupid]==2">
<span style="color: #CC0000">
</vb:if>
{vb:raw post.message}
<vb:if condition ="$post[usergroupid]==2">
</span>
</vb:if>
<vb:if condition ="$post[usergroupid]==6">
</span>
</vb:if>
