What does this modification do?
This modification allows users to specify their 'own' HTMLwhich surrounds their username. It is similar to that which is used for the Usergroup HTML Markup, however this modification is more restrictive. (Note: Markup is only applied in cases where the Usergroup Markup is typically applied).

Features:

• Users can choose:
  • Italics
  • Bold
  • SmallCaps
  • Text Decoration
    • Underline
    • Overline
    • StrikeThrough
  • Font Color
  • Background Color
  • Font Family/Face
• Admins can choose to:
  • Global Enable/Disable
  • Ban Certain Users
  • Ban Certain Font Colors
  • Enable/Disable each Option globally
  • Enable/Disable each Option Per Usergroup
  • Choose whether User HTML Markup overrides Usergroup HTML Markup

To install:

1. Upload Files
   • Upload functions_op_user_html_markup.php to the '/includes/' directory of your forum
   • Upload bitfield_op_user_html_markup.xml to the '/includes/xml/' directory of your forum
2. Import Product
   • Import the product as normal through the AdminCP. AdminCP > Plugins & Products > Manage Products
3. Accessing Product
   • To use this product the user can find the options listed on the UserCP > Edit Options page.

Troubleshooting & Common Problems

• If you forget to upload the files before importing the product, simply upload the files and then visit the AdminCP > Usergroups > Usergroup Manager page. (This is required to rebuild the bitfield cache after uploading a file). This only needs to be done if you do not upload the files before the import.

Meh...My Option Is Better....

If that is what you want to do then its fine, I was just merely suggesting that you could use the inbuilt features that are already there. But if you want to make your own modifications fine by me.

And No Thanks On The Making Special Usergroups Thing, Sounds Like You Don't Have That All The Way Worked Out....

Its fully worked out... you want to enable some people from accessing it you have to put them in their own usergroup. Like for signatures, there is no list to let certain users use signatures, you use the usergroup permissions. I won't be adding an option to enable it for just certain users... You could maybe try reversing the "Banned Users" option in the vBulletin Options but you'll have to do it yourself.

It is only the first version, with a minor revision, I'm sure he's working on fixing all the shortcomings for the next release, hence why it's taking so long.

Nah its not. I've just been busy.

I know it is a lot to ask but I am having some trouble with it on the Cyb - ChatBox.
The username appears as the "Username HTML Markup" in the Usergroup Manager to everyone, but appears as chosen by the "Individual Username HTML Markup" to only that user.
I hope that has made sense?? Is there anyway you could help, so that we could all see the username colour according to the "Individual Username HTML Markup"??
Muchly appreciated

[Opserty]

You could probably try looking through the plugins. Look for where it says:

PHP Code:

user.username, 


Changing it to:

PHP Code:

user.username, user.op_markup, 


That is probably all I can/am willing to do.

P.S. Mark as installed, if you've installed it!

This is a great little mod, and I've got it installed, but I have one question. Is there a way to disable the marked up usernames from displaying in the who's online areas?

[Dark Cynicus!]

can this be used for 3.5.4?

Again, read through the thread, this mod is for 3.7.x ONLY

It will NOT work on: 3.6.10-3.6.0 or 3.5.x or 3.0.x or 2.0.x series.

Try disabling the Plugin with the hook location: online_query

Try it and find out for yourself, I am not supporting the 3.5.4 version though so, don't complain if it doesn't work.

Great mod, have it installed.

Question though... How likely is it for you to add the ability for users to change their username in the same interface? If they are changing the display of their username it would be cool for them to be able to change their username on the same options area.

I plan on using this feature for high ranking members only and would like for them to be able to change their usernames at will.

Thanks

[Opserty]

That is an entirely different modification, sorry. My focus with this modification is on the markup around the Username not the Username itself.

[DarkGizmo]

Op, I know you're a busy man but I was just wondering any chance of seeing the border option soon?
