Version 1.13 - Added option to disable by styleid. (You should disable for all mobile styles)
Version 1.12 - Added a bunch new options and bug fix
Version 1.0 - Initial Release

This mod offers a simple postbit option that admins can specify to replace the standard postbit or postbit_legacy template on specific forums or in specific threads.

The simpler more minimalistic postbit is ideal when you want users focusing only on the post content and not avatars, signatures, or other irrelevant details.

The admin can actually turn the display of virtually every "extra" on or off via the mod options.

This mod is designed for VB 4.1.10 or higher. Versions below 4.1.10 will require a manual FILE EDIT.
(Details in the instructions.)

I would see use for this in a "Classifieds" forum, or perhaps a forum open to guests.

Really you could modify the new template postbit_simple_bop5_vb4 and put anything in it. For example if you replace this template with the code form postbit_legacy then you could use this mod to show the regular postbit template on most forums but choose to show postbit_legacy in specific forums or threads. It can really be thought more of as a "General Postbit Override" mod, it just happens to come pre-configured as a "Simple Postbit."

Please Mark as Installed if you use this. :)
Donations always appreciated. :up:

Great idea ! I am just figuring out how I am going / choosing to use it. :)
Testing

FYI: Show Rep Power is set to No
and is displayed.

Checking things on my side :)

hmmm... Is Rep being displayed or "Rep Power" ? Rep Power is just a number. Reputation itself is the green (or red) pips.

Oh sorry, it''s Reputation
All good. :)

Yeah Reputation showing is a hold-over as this was originally designed for a classifieds forum. User reputation was important so you knew if the person selling was a respected member.

It should be easy enough to disable in the future release, or a simple manual edit of the postbit_simple_bop5_vb4 template can remove it.

Hello BirdOPrey5. I like all of your mods and this one looks very interesting too. Thank you for sharing these for free. Much appreciate your time and effort.

Interesting , is it possible to have the thread starter have a full Postbit then everyone after have the simple Postbit?

I would like to see it with the option to rotate the order of locations rather then to disable if that were possible?

Your a fu**ing god of hacks BoP! Great idea and great hack!

is it possible to add thank-hack?
