vB3 Style Usergroup Based Username Formatting for vB 2.2.x
 

This is a vB3-style usergroup based username formatting hack. What it does is formats usernames for who's online, currently active users on index, and users browsing forum in fourmdisplay pages. Unlike other colored username hacks, this one will let you specify an HTML open tag and close tag for ANY usergroup from the Admin CP. It also has an automatic-updating who's online legend.

I have this running on my main site which is running vB 2.3.0, but should be compatible with any version 2.2.x or higher.

Future versions of this hack may include things such as memberlist username formatting, postbit username formatting, etc. through the use of its formatusername() function.

For a live demo, visit http://www.rpgpalace.net/forums/index.php or http://www.rpgpalace.net/forums/online.php

Attached below are screenshots of the Who's Online page, also the usergroup edit page in the admin cp, and of course the install instructions :)

The instructions are pretty straight-forward, estimated install time around 10-15 minutes.

Like when installing any hack, be sure to backup your files and database!! I will not be responsible for any damages that result by the use of this hack.

Please do NOT IM, PM, email, etc.. me for support for this hack, all support will be done in this thread on the basis that I have time. If you have a previous colored user hack installed you may have to uninstall that version first before you install this one.

If you install this hack, please click on the Install button :)

Just add the html code to the opening tag and leave the closing tag blank :)

Good job Storm ^_^ I was hoping you'd release it...even though assassingod says another was released, I never saw it, so I'll use this one ^_^ *clicks install*
