Users Browsing Formatting · **Released**: 04-26-2002

This may well of been done before, but I did look and couldn't find anything.

This small (ok, teeny) hack changes the way that usernames are displayed in [Users Browsing this Forum:]
on the forum display page.
I'd always wondered why vB had made Moderators names in bold, and Admininstrators names bold italic on the front page
(Who's Online) but no-where else where it applied, so I altered the forumdisplay.php file so that Mods and Admin were
always bold (and italic) for "Users Browsing" too.

To see a demo of this hack working, please visit

NB: If you do install this hack, please click on the INSTALL button. You will receive updates in your email whenever I add new features to it.
Also post a reply with your comments, they are appreciated.

Tested on: vBulletin 2.2.5
File to modify: forumdisplay.php (also showthread.php if using with FireFly's hack)
Estimated Install Time: 2 minutes

By both replacement sets I mean from my instructions sorry, it's bad wording because they're called that in the vB admin panel.

I meant to use that bit of code I posted above ^^ for both

Around line 697
Find the code:

And replace with:...

AND

Around line 711
Find the code:

And replace with:...

If ya get me.

If you're still having trouble, the offer is to you as well, feel free to send me the file and I'll have a scan over it

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
