Help - Just got vBulletin

I just installed vBulletin and I'm having trouble finding out how to do simple things. The manual isn't helping at all since it navigates just like the control panel.

So here are my first batch of questions:

How do you allow the user data to show on every post? (such as Location: Delaware) Is there anyway you can make a certain field required?

How can I change the size limit of an avatar? Under the Avatar bar, there is no option to do this and I had someone else sign up who was unable to add an avatar even though it is turned on.

Where is the template for editing? Under cpstyles, the html files are blank - all that I see are the images.

Thanks

I still can't figure out how to make the fields display when someone posts. Only location shows up. How do get another field such as real name to show up as it does on this forum?

Is there a guide here that shows the actual template that is edited?

Thanks!

Why would be the reason that my quick reply box won't work?

postbit or postbit_legacy, depends on what layout your using, user info across the top of the post or down the left side.

The real name field here is an added User Profile Field - it isn't a default vbulletin field. You would have to create that User Profile Field (see the manual in my sig) and then add it to the template (search "profile*" in "articles" "titles only" and you'll find an article on how to do that).

Ah, I didn't check the link cuz it's too painful to check all the links when you are stuck on dial-up (which is what I am stuck on while up here).

Thanks for the help.

For some reason, the code does not work. I tried a couple different ways. The only thing that shows up is the data from field 5. I added the other code (not in the example) to try to make the field name (Zone) show up but its not doing anything.

Code:

                                        <if condition="$post['joindate']"><div>$vbphrase[join_date]: $post[joindate]</div></if>

                                        <if condition="$post['field2']"><div>$vbphrase[location_perm]: $post[field2]</div></if>

                                        <if condition="$post['age']"><div>$vbphrase[age]: $post[age]</div></if>

                                        <div>

                                                $vbphrase[posts]: $post[posts]

                                        </div>

<if condition="$post['field5'] & 1"><div>$vbphrase[zone]

        $post[field5]</div>

</if>

<if condition="$post['field7'] & 2">

        $post[field7]

</if>

What is the "& 1" and "& 2"? That is more than likely why your code isn't working
