HTML in signatures - usergroup restricted.
 

This is a little custom hack originally written for Viruseater.

This hack allows you to turn on the use of HTML in signatures - and restrict it's use to a defined set of usergroups.

Unzip the xml file and import it into vbulletin via the product manager then turn on the option to allow html in signatures (in the vb options) and set the allowed usergroups - 5,6 & 7 are the defaults.

Very nice Paul. May use this in the future, thanks.

Thanks I've been waiting for this! :)

installed .

Please click install then. :banana:

This bit is interesting. Automatic install clicker?

Nice.

Yes (and uninstall as well).

Not foolproof, but it should work in the majority of cases.

thanks i have been waiting for something like this :)

heh, I like the automatic installer/uninstaller, I think I'ma use it in my hacks as well :)

EDIT: I don't think this will work properly in postbit. Maybe the postbit_display_start should be modified in the following way:

if (!defined('ALLOWHTML_SYSTEMSETTING', $vbulletin->options['allowhtml']);
if (!is_member_of($post,$groups))
{
$vbulletin->options['allowhtml'] = false;
}
else
{
$vbulletin->options['allowhtml'] = ALLOWHTML_SYSTEMSETTING;
}

Also, you might wanna consider re-enabling allowhtml after signature is displayed, to remove the potential possibilty of conflicts with hacks that use bbcode in custom fields etc.

i have instaled the hack and the users can use the html in thear sig . i have chosed the admin group only in the group options

any ideas
