Miscellaneous Hacks - Clan Tag In Post Bit

this edit just adds a clan tag next to your username or wherever you decide to put it

first you will need to make a profile field

Go to AdminCP --> User Profile Fields --> Add New User Profile Field

for profile field type select Single-Line Text Box

Title= Clan Tag
Profile Field Category= (Uncategorized)
Max length of allowed user input= 4
Field Required= Yes, at registration and profile updating
Field Editable by User= Yes
Private Field= No
Field Searchable on Members List= Yes
Show on Members List= Yes

should look like this:




Now Go To postbit_legacy And Find:

<vb:else />


{vb:raw post.musername}

right above it add: (Replace Red XX with the profile feild number)

<vb:if condition="$post['fieldXX']"> 
<font color="red" size="4"><B>{vb:rawphrase fieldXX}[{vb:raw post.fieldXX}]</B></font></vb:if>

after its done it will look like this

You put it to far up it needs to be above

<vb:else />
                <span class="username guest">{vb:raw post.musername}</span>

So it looks like

<vb:if condition="$post['field5']"> 
<font color="red" size="4"><B>{vb:rawphrase field5}[{vb:raw post.field5}]</B></font></vb:if>
            <vb:else />
                <span class="username guest">{vb:raw post.musername}</span>

also you said you used profile field 5 but in that ss you have it as 4

That method only puts the clan tag to the right of the username. My original coding puts it to the left of the username, which is where I want it. It also does not change the fact that the clan tag doesn't display ALT characters correctly and that is what I am looking to correct..

I am having no issues with ATL characters displaying correctly.
Only issue I see is when you use to many ALT characters.



Also, I edited your code, see below

<vb:if condition="$post['field11']"> 
<font color="red" size="4"><B>{vb:rawphrase field5}<br />[{vb:raw post.field11}]</B></font></vb:if>

Adding the <br /> will add clan tag on new line, looks better.

Strange, alt9733 shows a club symbol for me in IE11 FF.
