Custom Postbit For Admin

[Yami Shadow]

This is my very first hack, so if there's any bugs let me know.

Basically all this is, is an edit to functions_showthread.php and adding a template. As for screenshots, the postbit is pretty much a standout. However, I've only tested this in the postbit_legacy template. I'm not sure if it'll work in the standard one. The reason I created this? Stand out. Admins should be able to stand out from their members when they post ;[

Edit: The attached screenshot is a cropped image of the postbit. Mine isn't done, but it's sort of souped up a bit with the character thing...>.>

can we get a screenshot?

[nexialys]

a "reason" or "use" for this template would be good though!

Pretty simple really so Admin posts "stand out" and can be quickly noticed.. Just a nice way of telling the members "I'm GOD!! Look at Me!"

Seems to me, this could be done with a simple template conditional rather than an edit to functions_showthread

[AN-net]

same idea here jolten but good idea none the less ^.^

[Floris]

same idea here jolten but good idea none the less ^.^
<if condition="$post['userid'] == 'x'">postbit for admin<else />normal</if>

perhaps make it even more fun using in_array on the variable $superadministrators :)

[Jolten]

Wouldn't... <if condition="$post[usergroupid] =='x'">Postbit for admin<else />regular postbit</if> Be better :) That way all admins have the same postbit rather than every user.

[SVTBlackLight01]

Or..<if condition="is_member_of($post, X)">Postbit for admin<else />regular postbit</if> ;)

Where to put this template conditional??? :)

[Jolten]

the postbit template

[NuclioN]

Ok. But how is the conditional written? 'Postbit for admin' else 'postbit regular' ?

[rookie7]

<if condition="$post['userid'] == 'x'">postbit for admin<else />normal</if>

How do you do the superadmin one?

[DRJ]

Just change 'x' to the group number for superadmin

[Jolten]

Ok. But how is the conditional written? 'Postbit for admin' else 'postbit regular' ?

In postbit or postbit legacy:


<if condition="$post[usergroupid] =='x'">

Place the html for the postbit you want admins to use here

<else />

Place the html for the postbit for everyone else here

</if>


Change 'x' to the admin usergroup id number (OR any other usergroup id number)
