Think so. But IMHO the way I posted is the easiest.

PM me FTP details and i'll take a look.

I found the problem. I was using [username] in the first variable where I should have been using [you]. DUH on me! ;)

It works like a charm now. ;)

Thank you, sir. ;)

hm, i can't seem to get it. i just put the php code in the arcive.index and it shoudl show the userid when [username] is typed ? in the title and in the body ? cuz it doesn't show for me. do i have to activate something ?

working fine, THX kirby :)

Wow first time working with code like this and it was a charm, you rock Andreas thank you, I have been looking for this forever for both versions.

Quick question; how come when you use quick edit and enter [username] it is displayed as "[username]" not "KerbyDE"?

Thanks,
Mat

Very nice. Could be very useful in a lot of situations.

When I edit the post, then save, it shows [username] and not themusicman or whatever???

^ ^
yeah.

If you 'go advanced' it gets fixed, however it's no longer dynamic...

^ Thanks.

Is there any way this can be enhanced so as only Admins/Smods/Mods can use it? Is there a conditional I can wrap around the php code to effect this?

Cheers.
