Does this work with 3.6.3?

Yes....

I had this mod installed with vB 3.5 and all worked well. Great mod!

I've upgraded to vB 3.6.3 and installed the new one, which seems to also be working well besides one small problem (which I'm pretty convinced is me).

I want to change the welcome header from "Welcome 'username'" to "Welcome 'custom field 5'". Custome field 5 is the users first name in this case.

I have tried the following which I am sure worked before, but now don't seem to work.

$bbuserinfo['field5']
$bbuserinfo[field5]
{$bbuserinfo['field5']}
{$bbuserinfo[field5]}

But all of them just bring up the actual text in the welcome header rather than the contents of the custom field.

Any help would be greatly apreciated.

Thanks,

Hi,

How can I have an image background like the version at vbseo.com?

You will need to add the variables to your welcome headers templates using the variables system. For example, <phrase 1="faq.php?$session[sessionurl]" 2="register.php?$session[sessionurl]" 3="$vboptions[bbtitle]" 4="sendmessage.php$session[sessionurl]"> has 4 variables with different values. If you added 5="$bbuserinfo['field5']" you could then call it from the phrase as {5}. Alternatively you can stop using phrases and write your messages directly into the templates using any variable you please.

vbSEO uses the main welcome headers as images, rather than text. They also have a slightly different version for their member groups. This can be accomplished by slightly modifying the template welcome_headers to add whatever html and css you need to create your layout.

See http://www.vbseo.com/f28/how-make-yo...rs-image-7549/ for more information

Thanks Ted.

Was there a change from vb 3.5 that stoped it being possible to just use $bbuserinfo['fieldx'] ?

Cheers,

John

No. If you're editing a template you can use variables directly, phrases tend to need you to call out the variables afaik.

I still am stuck with this....any help?:confused:

Is there a link to this for vB 3.61? Or will this version work as well?
