works a dream on a custom vB style - my postbit is organised to cover situations where a user doesn't fill in fields and works fine, the basic instructions are fine - you literally surround the option within the div's and it works fine.

Marked as installed - thanks mate

Some examples to help those still struggling.....

Join date -

<vb:if condition="$post['joindate']"><div class="postbitboxes">
<dt><b>{vb:rawphrase join_date}</b></dt><dd>{vb:raw post.joindate}</dd></div>
</vb:if>

Custom Field 1 (location) -

<vb:if condition="$post['field1']"><div class="postbitboxes">
<dt><b>{vb:rawphrase location_perm}</b></dt><dd>{vb:raw post.field1}</dd></div>
</vb:if>
