I'm not sure I understand exactly what you're asking. Do you mean that you just want the word "status" with the custom field (field5) to only appear in the postbit if the user has entered something in the field? Something like Status: $post[field5] ?
If so, thats easy enough..
In admin/functions.php find:
Code:
if ($post[customtitle]==2) {
$post[usertitle] = htmlspecialchars($post[usertitle]);
}
Below it add:
Code:
if ($post[field5]!="") {
$status="<smallfont><b>Status:</b> $post[field5]</smallfont><br>";
} else {
$status="";
}
Then go to your postbit template and put $status below the avatar or where ever you want it to appear.
