Show Thread Enhancements - Thread Starter in Postbit for vB 4

Thread Starter in Postbit for vB 4
Version 1.0.3
(By Boofo)

What does this product do?
This will add a thread starter icon/text to the postbit. There are 4 locations to choose from (2 icon and 2 text). I know this had been done already, but I didn't like how it showed in the postbit. You do not have to have a signature for this to work. This product is just an upgrade to the manual template edit I have used in the past.

Note: This product was written using the postbit_legacy template and has not been tested on the postbit template, although it should work fine.

Version Information:
Version 1.0.0 --Initial release for vBulletin 4.0.0
Version 1.0.1 --Fixed to work for vB 4.0.4
Version 1.0.2 --Added 2 new locations with highlighted text.
Version 1.0.3 --All 4 options are now linked to the first post of the thread. Also fixed a template cache error that was showing up for PMs.

Installation Overview:
-----------------------------------------------------
1 Product XML (2 Plugins, 1 template, 7 phrases and 1 setting)

Ok, I see what you mean now. I will look into when I have a few minutes.

I do like the custom pic though. Willing to share it?

[Luca_ITA]

work fine on vb4.1.9, thx!

[gedsta]

Installed and working well.

Is there any chance you could please tell me where to look for the colour of the background bar so as I can change it?

The yellow looks a little out of place.

Thanks.

It's working on 4.2, but shouldn't this be upgraded ?

[Boofo]

Why? If it works it works.

To test and confirm for people that it's compatible with 4.2 .
