hello,

for font-family + color + size following code is working:

maybe someone can use it ;)

Is there anyway we can have an option to overide that setting. For example: if my users want to use a different color in their posts then fine, however if i just want to see all posts in black, i would like to overide the color option...just for myself....its been done somewhere in a vb 3.0.6 version....

Peace

Thats the one im talking about...

Peace

I had to put this in my postbit legacy to get it to work, but now looks great!
Thanks for the hack!...and I did change the size too, it was a bit small at first.

INSTALL

for some reason I cant get this to work, I have another hack installed (but can't find it here to try and get rid of it), not sure if thats the issue, here's my postbit template, maybe you can help.

I also tried removing this but than I get an error when I go to Save Changes:

What about so they can have bold and italics etc for future addons?

I also had to add this to my postbit_legacy but it works great thank you :thumb:

how can I set this to make it italik, underline and bold

thnx

excellent !!! can i translate this mod in french just for vbulletin FR http://forum.vbulletin-fr.org thank you very much !

i have edit it for bold/unbold (sorry for my english i'am french ) i can do it for italic and underline if you like my bold 's add-on !

-----
Allow users to change bold/unbold in all their posts.

----
Go to User Profile Fields >> Add New User Profile Field

Choose a "Single-Line Text Box"

Title: "your text in bold ?""

Description: "write "yes" in the field if you want your text in bold" ( ex : yes )

Display Size: 11

Max length of allowed user input: 3

-----------------
In your postbit template find :
replace with :

Replace the first x in the condition statement with the ID of the ?Your Font Color In Posts? profile field, and replace the second with the ?Your Font In Posts? profile field. The X in font-family will be the id for the field in which you created in the first step and the X in color will be the id for the field in which you created in the first step. Replace Y with the ID of "your text in bold?".To view the id of the field created go to the "Profile Field Manager" and find the field ID of the field you made. (This appears under the "Name" column). It should show as fieldx where x is the ID.

gio~logist say me it this modification interest you. You can post it in your hack :) can i translate it for vbulletin FR ? http://forum.vbulletin-fr.org ?

work with 3.5.2 and 3.5.3?

thnx much room56. it's perfect hack

Beautiful!

Installed, works like a charm.

I edited it to only have users change color only.

Thanks so much! :nervous:

this didn't work for me! I did the changes.
Then went into my profile and changed my settings and then went to a new thread and typed something andit's not showing my color and font.

ok, I fixed it! Thank you!!!!!

Could someone tell me were to put this....font-size: 9pt; My font size shrunk!

Also, Firefox doesnt pick up the color...is there an answer for this? I notice there is a lot firefox doesnt do these days agh!

Took a few tweaks but finally got it to work thank you :)

It's not working for me either :(

tried everything mentined here - in different skins but stilllll....

Excellent - it wasn't working for me, after replacing code described in your reply, it works fine - thanks... Your can add code for italic and underline as well please... thanks

Directions? :surprised:

Thanks!

Is there a way to keep it from showing what color you're using in the user profile?

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet, but you can also make the font option a pull-down menu. Keep in mind I know almost nothing, but instead of this:

I did:

It's easier, because (from my understanding) they don't have to try to guess what fonts are available. They just click the pull-down and select. Everything else is the same.

It's working in my forum, anyway. ;)

Great improvement Morrighan256 :)

Not for 3.6 it's not :( Size part is what doesn't work.

this is working on 3.5.4?

Any chance of a drop down for the colours too?

Cheers.

<div id="post_message_$post[postid]"><if condition="$post['field9'] != '' OR $post['field10'] != ''">

<font style="font-family:$post[field10]; color:$post[field9];">$post[message]</font>

hmm not working for me.

Font colour = field 9
Font = field10

if i done it wrong can u correct it for me please

anyway to get this applied to the vbShout some members have been complaining that they want the font color they pick to stay instead of having to re-pick the color when they refresh or click on another forum and all of that...im sure just have to edit the vbshout code to call the if statement right? Below is what im thinkning...

this hack most important for me!
this hack use together 3.5.4, and then give me your add commands code please

Hey I studied all replies here and combinded it one step more.
In your post bit, find the <!-- message --> bars and take it from there with the code below to replace the whole section.

What this is designed for? Forums that like to use usergroups (Secondary or primary!) for unlockable bonuses (Paid subscription, point store bought usergroups etc)

Meaning, long as your a active status in "x" usergroup, it will then display your other font edits.

I tested it out, fully works, changed all my posts etc, then tested it when I removed the usergroup status, and back to default everything went. =)

I "might" add bold or italic function to it too. I know I could ALSO do mod/admin type setups.. however, I rather not force my mods/admins to be stuck with what I give em. ;) Then glow looks ugly some.. not to mention most everyone on forums is a FireFox user.

Anyways hope this can help someone too. =)

Thanks Mysticales,

working now :)

Is there a chance we have this hack for vb 3.60

Not working for me in 3.5.4, have posted my postbit template here with the changed code in red.... can anyone tell me where I am going wrong please???

Thanks.

you use this. if your font field number 23 , color 24.. or change numbers.

I have made a "slight" modification.
As most of you know, when making the "New profile field" use the option "Single drop down menu" and for the list. (See below)
Then "Set Default, Yes, But No First Blank Option"
Then just do your normal title, desc etc, and in the options field, paste this list.
Updated Code.

This was a fix I did the same night because some users told me that once you select a font.. you cant get back to "Default" which is what you have your browser set to. (maybe you have a custom one?) etc, so the new code and list will allow users to choose not to use it and the code will reconize that and restore the default based on the user themself.

I may update again if I add bold and italic options to the list, but so far, my Premium users are loving this exclusive feature. =)

OCT 17 2006 Update:

I updated the above code. This time.. I believe it is stable, I changed it to look at the POSTERS usergroup vs the bbuser flag which caused some issues... The change? Well... BEFORE it turned out that ONLY members OF that allowed usergroup were able to see others with custom font/color, whereas regular users/guests would only see black. Which was in error. Now ANYONE can see the "allowed" usergroups custom color/font. Long as the user of the "x" post is part of the "x" assigned usergroup, the forums will pull the data from that users field profile on custom font/color and apply it.

If they are not part of the "x" allowed group, then it will just be a normal looking post. So NOW its working as intended for a special or paid usergroup, where everyone else can see they have custom stuff, but cant use it themselves unless they are also in that group.

How would you be able to add the bold or italics feature, but without having to type in "yes" in a text box? Is it possible to do it so you'd have yes and no radio buttons?

Like this:

Bold Font? oYes oNo

Does this work with 3.6?

Any chance of getting this updated for vB 3.6.x??

Same ?
