can you add this feature of having global profile intro blocks? So that i can set default message to all my members.

[Alan_SP]

Yes, that could be useful, to inform members that they have profile info block and that they can edit it.

mine isn't showing up at the top like your screenshots, and I have no idea what some of the posts are saying. I am running the latest version of vbulletin, but I put test in both places to show you and it's in the about page, not up at the top like it should be. I am going to need a bit more help probably, because I have not edited the css templates yet and am still learning. But here's what mine looks like:

You have to edit the user group options in the admincp settings.

BB Code works now but doesn't show for Guests.

[Miss Buruku]

Yeah, I can't get mine to form its own separate block either. Am I missing a step? I followed the dev's instructions and read this thread...

I activated it in the admin cp settings as well.

[Arcanus]

Is there a second place where the block needs to be enabled besides AdminCP->Settings->Option->Profile Intro Options as I appear part of the great unwashed masses form whom this block doesn't appear except in About Me.

I see posts mentioning "AdminCP" and that's a spot broad.
