I only found the version of this hack that worked for vB 3. Thanks for this. Gonna install it soon enough! :)

is there a way to change it from [you] to /you ? i prefere /You

works on 3.6

I have been looking for this exact thing....

THANKS! I like to keep it personal on my forum... Like I am actually talking to the user themself. This is perfect!

one request....can you get it to work with vbshout or is that impossible?

Great hack. I've replaced the 'username' field with my 'real name' userfield, so it displays the user's real name instead of their username.

I'm testing it out a little now. Thanks for great hack!

*clicks install*

EDIT: It works great. I've added the userfield conditional to the plugin, so that if a member has no 'real name' listed in the respective userfield, it displays the 'username', so you'll never get a blank.

too bad that when the [you] is quoted that the readers see the person's name that did the quoting...

i have the product by Hambil installed on 3.6.0 beta 3 and so far it works in threads titles but haven't really tried it anywhere else.

actually, I''m seeing the exact opposite. when you are quoting someone, it shows the actual [ you ] code, but once they post it, it works just like it does normally, even in the quoted text..

We had an absolute blast with this on my board - I didn't tell anyone about it, just put it into effect. It took the first person 40+ posts to get it, and the last person to get it was after post #170 or so - my fiance thought I turned the whole board against her, it almost wrecked our relationship. Flippin awesome!!!! I can't say Ive had this much fun with anything since I discovered vaseline at age..errr... sorry bout that, nevermind.
