Displaying text color in postbit?
 

Playing around with custom profile fields, installing the ability for users to choose their gender. It works, but I think I want a postbit template conditional for making it display blue if they chose Male, and pink if they chose female.

Right now it displays like this:

Here's the bit from the postbit template, where we're calling this up:Any ideas? I want it to go more like "if gender =1 then blue and if gender =2 then pink"

I guess you want something like:

That sure looks like it might work... I will have it tried and let you know.

Thanks Kevin!

"Invalid tag nesting" error.

Yeah, there were a couple of problems with that. I shouldn't even try to post things without testing them first, I don't have a very good record. Anyway, I tried it and posted the fixed code above.

U Da Man, thank you again!

We made the color "HotPink" to get it to stand out more. Nicely done Kevin and again, thank you for the help.

Probably the "right" way to do it would be to change it to set a class based on the gender, then put CSS in additional.css to set the colors (and/or font, size, etc). Also that way you could have different colors per style if you wanted. But if it's doing what you want the way it is, I'd say that's fine.

I thought of that as well, but it was not as simple for the person I'm helping, and very difficult to explain.

This works for what they want, job well done.
