Thanks very much for sharing. :)

thank you, is there some variable that makes the subforum it was reported? i want to use it to the report titles post...

wasn't this posted already?

thanks either way :D

ya it was !! and it shows now ..

What about the total number of members of a usergroup?

say usergroup 37

Also where do I get the current users styleid that they have set?

What would I use if i wanted to show an image if a curtain user is online and if they are off show a different one.

What about trying to get themt o display in two different spots, when I have them both in the forumhome template and in the footer template, it won't display in the footer one, is there something I need to do to make it display?

Thanks ...
I doubt I can use it anywhere in my vb

Is there a variable that contains the name of the current page? I can't seem to find one.

THIS_SCRIPT

But it's a constant, not a variable, so don't use $

One more that should be added to the BBuserinfo list is $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]

This one is really useful, so I think it should be added.

How do I use THIS_SCRIPT in a conditional to check if on the forum index page?
This is what I have right now but it's not working:

Code:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT != 'index.php'">

 <td class="forumbitforumlevel1post">$forum[lastpostinfo]</td><!-- -->

 <td class="forumbitforumlevel1post">$forum[threadcount]</td><!-- -->

 <td class="forumbitforumlevel1post">$forum[replycount]</td><!-- -->

</if>

I've placed it inside the forumbit_forum_level1_post as I want the thread and post info displayed in tabular form in the displayforum page but not on the homepage.
I've tried using the $vboptions[homeurl] and $vboptions[bburl] to no avail.
:confused:

--------------- Added [DATE]1237927008[/DATE] at [TIME]1237927008[/TIME] ---------------

I've just found the answer to my question here:
http://forum.vbulletinsetup.com/f18/...list-2185.html

In other words it should be this:

Code:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT != 'index'">

What would i use to make a "Home" buton that links to each persons OWN profile.?

Thanks :)

Thanks :)

HTML Code:

<a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$bbuserinfo[userid]">Home</a>

This is what is there now..so i will need to make some adjustments for the button, etc..

Code:

<a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" class="home">Home</a>

This has the info i need though thanks. :)

Thank you so much, really useful!

Oh this is going to be very helpful.

how can I get the first post's title of a thread?

how can i use it in templates ? please

I wanted to use some of the site statistic variables in a side column but I noticed that some don't show up on the showthread page. Any idea how to get them to show up?

How can I show the user(s) rank? Using the $bbuserinfo one?

$post[rank] inside the postbit.
$bbuserinfo[rank] outside the postbit.

Neither of them worked for me, but thanks for trying to help.

How and where did you implement them?

Is there a tutorial or easy way to learn how to use these and design with them, as in pulling certain elements up to the front page? Seems very powerful!!!

What do we have to do to make these available in a custom product or script?

I see that $vbulletin->userinfo works, but when I try to use $bbuserinfo it's not there.

That's a very nice list! Thank you very much I can definitely put this to some use I guess :-P

Have you tried making $bbuserinfo global?

Variable for Version #?

Hi... is there a variable for what template group the current template is in?

I'm trying to figure out if a template is a Custom Template or not.

What's the name of the template? We could probably just tell you.
