An important thing to note is what the internal field ID is for your new setting. In my case it's 21... so in the plug-in, we are reading field21.

Create a new plug-in like so (do NOT pick the Thread Avatars as the product since it would get overwritten on an update):



You now should have a setting that users can set in their UserCP settings that allows them to toggle Thread Avatars on/off.

You can use a similar plug-in to set the $show['hide_thread_avatars'] variable to "true" for other things if you want (per style, per usergroup, etc.)

While I really appreciate you adding the code, would have been great if you copy/paste the code so I can be sure I'm doing it right rather than typing it all over. So far, I've done this:

if ($vbulletin->userinfo['field28'] == 'yes') $show['hide_thread_avatars'] = true;

However, this doesn't seem to work. I've set it to NO in the options menu (on my profile) and yet it still shows up. And yes, I've updated the product. And yes, the field is also correct. Also, I selected the cache_templates. I've done everything and copied everything from your images above, still doesn't work.
