But i do give most of the credit to gio~logist for the idea even though i knew how to do this, dont wanna look like im taking credit for something i didnt do.Its like his for 3.5 except i added a color wheel link pop up. I dont have alot of coding experience, but template mods are not hard. Just wanted to kinda share this.

No problem.

Sorry I just got the chance to get back online, i was at work. Well I dont know how to make plugins but i could probably make it usergroup permissions. I will have it up tonight. :D

Please press install if you are using it.

okay. clicked install. now make the usergroup permission please. :D

Working on it right now...

I have a problem,

my field6: Color de letras (color)
My field7: Tipo de fuente (font)

<if condition="$post['field6'] != '' OR $post['field7'] != ''">

<font style="font-family:$post[field7]; color:$post[field6];">$post[message]</font>

<else />

$post[message]

</if></div>

is not working... what im doing wrong?

Try This...

Oh and uhm the usergroup permissions may take a lil longer than expected. Its not as easy as one may think. But I am working on it :D

I dont know how to make a plug in either but Im sure there is a nifty TUT somewhere here on the org. :)

Cant wait to install later! This with usergroup permissions is JUST what I need! teehee

ok , Work Excelente... gracias :D

Your Welcome... Still Working On User Permissions.... Not Lookin Good...:(

Thank you so much for your effort ShadowOne!

You welcome... Please press install

Im sadly still tryin to work on usergroup permissions...if anyone has any ideas, let me know!

let me try

this is what i did and placed in postbit

<!-- message -->
<div id="post_message_$post[postid]"><if condition="$post['field14'] != '' OR $post['field15'] != ''"> <font style="font-family:$post[field14]; color:$post[field15];">$post[message]</font> <else /> $post[message] </if>
</div>
<!-- / message -->

it shows in my profile but when i post a reply no change please guide

is there a way to interpret the size in this as well?

How do you decide whether to modify postbit or postbit Legacy???

Also, for some reason the fonts don't change. Do I need to add fonts to some folder???

Looks like no support here?

I have found that you need modify them both or you will not be able to post at all. At least it worked like that for me with 3.6.8.

Its a great idea for a modification... but it doesn't include the selected color when someone quotes the user. Too bad, I really like the idea. I'll have to disable it until it works in quotes.

Un-installed as there is obviously no support

Not understanding your problem... fonts change for me when i type in the font name...

Is there any way to do this with a dropdown box, and have it save the value to the database so it won't reset constantly?

I have installed this, but am having something of an issue.Members using IE do not see the changes in their posts. Any ideas?

It would be nice if there is an option where people can choose the availble fonts.

doesnt work for me**

thanks i used this for my site: animedreamz.net/forums
worked perfectly

Damn its not working for me either :S

It`s not working. When a member posting, it`s seems to work. But when a member leave the topic and come back and look at his reaction. It doesn`t still the same color and/or font.

But a administrator or a moderator doesn`t have this problem..


help.

Very good idea, I'm going to try and tweak the code a little bit for usergroup permissions and other options, if you don't mind

not at all, ive been busy working, sorry no help... but tweak as you may
