Use this on my vB2 site, good to see it's ready for when I move over. :D

This can be done with a simple line in the postbit template.

this can also be done with template conditional with no hacking.


edit: Boofo, stop repeating me! ;)

Seeing that you would have to write an "if" statement and dig through the template menus, doing it this way is probably quicker :)

honestly, i think the 'if' is easier, since a vb.com dev posted it some time ago. But hey.. gotta love hacks :)

although I'll admit.. my test server has the if statement setup as user selectable lol

Well, to me, using the template <if> conditionals is blurring the line between application and presentation layer.. it is meant as a quick fix if you're not able to modify the code. When both solutions are short and easy, I'll choose the code modification rather than putting more code in the presentation HTML. I do appreciate the functionality the conditionals give and I do use them when appropriate.

To each his/her own though ;)
