I want all my forums set up with the 1st post as Postbit Article and all replies as Postbit Legacy. Is there a way to do that and eliminate the option of changing it?

Regards

you can do that from

vBulletin Options > Style & Language Settings > Use Legacy (Vertical) Postbit Template

under that you will find Yes/No Option

set to yes to view all post in post in postbit legacy style and of course you can set the first post to Postbit Article

I think that is what you ask for if I'm not mistaken ^^

Good Luck

how about just having the first post on each page set as normal? Or even a new post..just set as normal without coming up as the default article?

This should have been implied in the product post.

Thanks.

Thanks for the input Super Jinni .... But you're missing the point, when you install the product it mods the newthread template and adds a dropdown selection for the Chief First Post format. what I want to do is have the firs post st as Postbit Article and eliminate the dropdown selection box.

Because I like having the custom format for the starter topic plus I like having the topic to be visible on all concurrent pages of the thread.
