Default or Retro
 

This will super simple mod will allow your users to have either a new styled vB3 postbit or the old vB2 postbit with out using phpinclude_start OR hacking :)


Step 1
Add a new profile field that is a single selction menu
Title: Postbit Style
Description: How all postbits will appear to you.
Options:
Default
Legacy

OR

Legacy
Default

(depending on WHICH you want to be default)
Default: Yes but not blank.

Now, Im going to assume you have NOT modifed your postbit template much and give you 2 predone full template bits, ill also give you 2 non predone bits that you must fill in for your self.

You need to chage the top line of any of the text files to make sure you have the number of the profile field replaced for X.

:)

Yay! So simple, and so smart. Thanks!
I will surely encorporate this into my forums in some way.

please to post demo
thanks

thanks

This will also avoid that extra query kura's hack takes care of.

OK please tell me what exactly to do!? This isnt very helpful...

what exactly are the 3 attached files?!

Basicly, there are 3 attached files,

The first is the regular vB3 new styled postbit as the default
The second is the Old vB2 styled postbit as the default
the thrid is if you have heavily modifed one or the other and just the conditions to use.

Ah ok, but where will the users be able to change this in their profile?

You read the instructions ;)
