Set variable based on user title

[kontrabass]

Hello,

In 2.0beta3, I inserted the code:

PHP Code:

switch ($post[usertitle])  {
    case $post[usertitle]=="New Member":
    $support="<a href=\"http://www.mysite.com/support.php\">Upgrade Available</a>";
    break;
    case $post[usertitle]=="Member":
    $support="<a href=\"http://www.mysite.com/support.php\">Upgrade Available</a>";
    break;
    default:
    $support="";
} 


..In showthread.php, in the following While loop:

PHP Code:

while ($post=$DB_site->fetch_array($posts) and $counter++<$perpage) 


The point is to display the "Upgrade Available" link in a user's post under their usertitle, if the user is not a "Supporting Member". This is done by simply including the $support variable in the postbit template.

However, this no longer works in 2.0.3, in the same While loop, and I can't figure out why...

Anyone have an idea how to set the $support variable based on user title and achieve the objective?

Thanks -
