Opserty, I'm pretty sure. You can read my thread on vbulletin.com about it. In short, I used the conditional below and it only worked on threads above 2000. If someone can explain why that is, I'd love to know.

<if condition="$post[posts] >= '1000'"> &gt;1000<else /> $post[posts]</if>

Nifty_xxl, that's good to know. So far, I can see two possible approaches. Is either of these the best way to do it?

Way 1 I override the behavior of $userinfo[posts] and $post[posts] within a plugin. This is ideal because I could change them to output the number below 1000 and just > 1000 above. There would be no template edits.

Way 2 Create new variables with the relevant post count and edit the templates. Are those two variables even accessible by a plugin? Are they available everywhere or just within a certain hook?

If I'm conceptually off, please let me know. I really appreciate the feedback. If I can find a way to do this that's straightforward and doesn't require edits, it would make a great mod.
