Postbit Question.

[TCE Killa]

Just need to know how to give users an option in there profile by creating a profile field, so they can put in an image address for a background image to show in there postbit. Any ideas? Thanks alot.

Just make a new "Custom Profile Field" in the AdminCP then use the $post[fieldX] (X being a number) in the postbit(_legacy) template.

This would take a little work to get the post bit background to change per post, not to mention it could make your board look very ugly depending on what the users use

I was thinking you could use style="background-image: url($post[fieldX]);" I don't know if there are security implications or what not? But its true that it could make a mess of your board, like if someone chooses the background image to be Black and font on your board is Black it will annoy the heck out of other users.

Thats true, I suppose it is not worth it, seen it on other forums though.

Thanks but I tried that and several other things, but no luck.
