I'm having some issue installing this. Where in the template? The postbit for all of the templates that are on the site?

Also, with regard to the fields. I have put them into the code as they are (font face, color, etc.) and still not working.

It says specifically in the instructions where to place the code. You should FIND and ADD BELOW.

Add the code in the right spot and you should be fine.

I added it into the legacy postbit as was referred to in shadow's post. The instructions with this mod state edit template but not where.

I put it in presumably where it is supposed to be, however, it is not working. Could you please be more specific for us code-tarded folks. Thanks.:D Also, can you clarify - the instructions say:

FIND:

<div id="post_message_$post[postid]">$post[message]</div>


REPLACE WITH:

Yes, that would be handy!

Searching templates for the code

PHP Code:


		
			
<div id="post_message_$post[postid]">$post[message]</div>

shows two templates that contain this code:
postbit and postbit_legacy

postbit works.

I only want members to be able to set font type, color and italic. The field number for this are:
font type: 23
color: 24
italic : 25

I have color and italic working, but not font type.

My current code is:

PHP Code:


		
			
<!--Custom Font-->
<if condition="$post['field23'] OR $post['field24'] OR $post['field25']">

<span style="font: $post[field23]; color: $post[field24];font-style: $post[field25];">$post[message]</strong></span>

<else />
$post[message]

</if>
<!--/Custom Font-->

Please advise.

Does higher / lower case matter when defining fonts?

Yes the code shows up in two templates because it depends on which you use Postbit or postbit legacy, this option can be toggled in vBOptions.

As for your problem, the way the code works it HAS to have the the size code in there. my suggestion to is leave the code the way it is and change the font size PX to the desired size you want like so:

Code:

<span style="font: 15px $post[fieldXX]; color: $post[fieldXX]; font-weight: $post[fieldXX]; font-style: $post[fieldXX]; text-decoration: $post[field17];">$post[message]</strong></span>

OR

You can also still make the profile field, but only make 1 option like 15 or whatever. Then set it to default first option and make it so the member can not edit. The first option might be easier.

Aah. That makes sense. Thanks.

Exatcly what I was looking for. I did the same thing as Alph1

So what exactly is the default font px size? I am pretty sure 15 is a tad too large.

One thing I have found--- when you choose a color--its lighter than the same color you choose in the editor

Here is an example. The dull pink is using the hack and the brighter is using the editor when you make a post

I have no idea why that would happen...

Edit: I've tested it on my forum and it did not happen. I replied to the test thread and edited the post and it stayed the same.

Also I don't know the exact size that would work for forum, so it's best to try a few numbers before go LIVE with it.
