You can use an if statement on the user profile field to display code.

It will depend on what you are trying to achieve and where exactly. Have a look at this:
http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...-Profile-Field recent discussion about it.

Off the top of my head I suspect you want something like inserted into the forumhome or some such template

<vb:if condition="$post['fieldx'] == y"> HTML CODE YOU WANT TO EXECUTE </vb:if>

Where 'x' is the id number for user profile field and 'y' is what you want it to be equal to.

Not sure what level your coding is at so I apologise if this is stuff you already know, but remember with code conditions that;

== means "if equal to".

= means "set value"

!= means "if NOT equal to".
