Dont know if this will help but I got it to work in newpost_username template by placing the code that Dragonbyte Tech mentioned here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...11#post2161211 at the bottom of the template, it what worked for us.
Save your template first before editing so you can revert it if anything goes wrong.
newpost_username template:
PHP Code:
<vb:if condition="!$show['member']">
<div class="blockrow">
<label for="username">{vb:rawphrase your_username}:</label>
<input type="text" class="primary textbox" id="username" name="username" value="{vb:raw bbuserinfo.username}" tabindex="1" />
<vb:if condition="$_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] != 'POST'">
<p class="description"><a href="javascript://" onclick="return highlight_login_box();">{vb:rawphrase click_here_to_log_in}</a></p>
</vb:if>
<vb:else />
<vb:if condition="$show['anonymous']">
{vb:phrase anon_posting_as} {vb:raw bbuserinfo.musername} <br />
<label for="cb_anonymous"><input type="checkbox" id="cb_anonymous" class="bginput" name="anonymous" value="1" <vb:if condition="$vbulletin->GPC['anonymous']">checked="checked"</vb:if>/>{vb:phrase zointsanony_anonymous_post}</label>
</vb:if>
</div>
</vb:if>
