Yeah I also use postbit_legacy and I don't know how to make this work. Any help?

Looks like I replaced both of them with:

HTML Code:

<if condition="$post['field7'] != '' ">

<font style="color:$post[field7]">$post[musername]</font>

        <else />

$post[musername]

</if>

Nope, any other ideas?

Worked for me. Did you replace 'field7' with your field number?

* christianb clicks install with modifications

Instead of having users type in the choice, I chose to make it a drop-down box (much easier)

Code:

<if condition="$post['fieldx'] != '' "> 

<font style="font-family:$post[fieldx]; color:$post[fieldx];">$post[musername]</font>

        <else />

$post[musername]

</if>

If I'm understanding this step correctly then isn't this only checking either font or color in that first line before executing? What if I put my color selection's profile field number in the bolded area, but one of my users only has a font style selected without color? Won't this skip the check for a font selection?

I apologize if I'm misunderstanding this step.

ETA: That seems to be the way it is working. I had a color selected but not a font. The profile field ID I used in the bolded conditional statement was for font. Since I didn't have a font selected it skipped over my color selection.

Idea #1 - Show up in Who's Online

Idea #2 - Show up in Online Users in VBAdvanced

Idea #3 - Set everyone's font/color to a default - remove the if conditional :P

I'd like a similar hack: automatically make their username green when they are online. Or make it GLOW !

And black (or red) when they are offline.

That'd be slick as hell, and much cleaner than the "status" dot.

This is a great idea and my member's have asked for this, but i just can't get this to function........dang it.

All i want is the color choice. I have set this up in postbit-legacy and there is absolutely no change at all......just stay's dark blue.

K, i got it working in postbit-legacy. Is there anyway to get this to work globably? Right now the color only show's in the thread made by the member.........thanks

So, does anyone know how to make this function in 3.6.5?

Can someone update this for 3.6.8 because it doesn't work? Thanks.

works with 3.6.9 just fine also.

is there an easy way to make this show on the front page / whos online/ and in chatbox?

WNM07

there's got to be a username markup that will pick up on the profile field and at the same time
keep the username color on the missing places like whos online / chatbox etc

I did this hack on my forum. I am running vB 3.6.5 (I know it's old, but I have reasons as for why I do not wish to update at the moment).

I primarily use Firefox, but I just recently noticed that Internet Explorer (default settings) is displaying my post reply text in green instead of the default white. My default settings are for Verdana white text. And that is how it displays in Firefox, which is correct per my settings. However, in IE it displays the same font style, but in green text. And I've had other members state that it also displays in green when they view it from a PDA/Phone.

Any idea's on what the problem could be? Could it be related to this particular template modification?

Any help would be appreciated.

- Thanks.
