Username colour by sex

[Lautaro]

There's no need of separating the people in different usergroups, I will show you a way to do this manually, it's very easy.


1.- Add a new Profile Field: Single-Selection Menu


**---------------------------------------------------**
Title: Sex ( or whatever you want to name it )
Description: Please select one of the options below
Profile Field Category: uncategorized
Options:

Male
Female

( put it exactly as I'm showing you, type one hit ENTER and type the other one )

Set Default: Yes, Including first blank.......
Field Required: yes, at registration.....
Field Editable by User: Yes
Private Field: no
Field Searchable on Members List: no
Show on Members List: no
**---------------------------------------------------**


Which page displays this option?: Edit Your Details.


Now go to Styles & Templates > Search in Templates > and seach for POSTBIT or if you use the vertical posts search for POSTBIT_LEGACY. Double click the template to edit it and now find the following code:

<a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[musername]</a>

and replace with:

<if condition="$post['fieldX']==Female">

<a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><span style="color: orange;">$post[musername]</span></a>

<else />

<a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><span style="color: Blue;">$post[musername]</span></a>

</if>

fieldX = is the field that you created, you can see which field number it is by going to Admincp> user profile fields > user profile field manager.

The code before the <else> is the code for female sex and the code after the <else> is for male sex, so if you want to change the color you can do it by changing the name of it for example "red, yellow etc.. " or you can use HTML and replace the code for this one:

As shown above

<span style="color: orange;">

to use HTML colors:

<span style="color: #FF9900;">

that simple !


NOTE: This will affect every usergroup that has NO "Username HTML Markup" .. So lets say your registered users usergroup has HTML markup, you will need to go to Usergorups > Usergroups manager > Registered Users (edit) and remove HTML markup.
