Users Browsing Formatting
 

This may well of been done before, but I did look and couldn't find anything.

This small (ok, teeny) hack changes the way that usernames are displayed in [Users Browsing this Forum:]
on the forum display page.
I'd always wondered why vB had made Moderators names in bold, and Admininstrators names bold italic on the front page
(Who's Online) but no-where else where it applied, so I altered the forumdisplay.php file so that Mods and Admin were
always bold (and italic) for "Users Browsing" too.

Tested on: vBulletin 2.2.5

Estimated Install Time: 2 minutes

I've been thinking about doing this recently also, but haven't found the time. Thanks!

Damnit, this hack won't doesn't want to work. I modified the code and everything but for some reason the formatting is not being applied, it still shows up as normal font. I setted the usergroup id's to their correct value also.

Hmm, not sure why it's not working for ou Velocd. I've installed it on 3 different copies here and works fine.
