Hi and thanks for the quick reply.
It needs to be available at the top associated with the user.
Basically I use my hack at
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=67942
to display a news feed at the top of specific forums just below the navbar.
But after requests from my members, I want to give them the option to display the news at the top, bottom or not at all.
I have created a custom user field (field9) which has a drop-down list of these options.
Dependant upon what the value of this field is, I want to display the news at the top, bottom or not at all.
If you can help out, I will add the details to my hack (with full credit, of course) making it more useful to the vBulletin.org community.
Many thanks.
