What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified by us whenever new updates are available.

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps us know how many people are using our work, giving us extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

We appreciate the support!

Please do not cross post to both vb3 and vb4 as we rely on the thread to determine basic information about a persons forum so we can test reported issues more reliably. Thanks

You need to create plugin as ozzy47 explaind. After you have this plugin created you can use {vb:raw template_hook.dbtech_status} and {vb:raw template_hook.dbtech_mood} wherever you want it in your postbit (you don't use postbit legacy).

For this effect you need to edit your postbit template.

Find:

<div class="username_container">
					<vb:if condition="$post['userid']">
						{vb:raw memberaction_dropdown}
						{vb:raw post.onlinestatus}
					<vb:else />
						<span class="username guest">{vb:raw post.username}</span>
					</vb:if>

Edit it so it looks like:

<div class="username_container">
					<vb:if condition="$post['userid']">
						{vb:raw memberaction_dropdown}
						{vb:raw post.onlinestatus}

{vb:raw template_hook.dbtech_status}

					<vb:else />
						<span class="username guest">{vb:raw post.username}</span>
					</vb:if>

In your picture you didn't included online status, so I placed status after online status, you could choose to have online status after it. Or don't have it at all (just delete it from template).

Ok, thank you very much, the first part I got it, now I need to position the state on the same line dl (Nick, online status) to make it like the picture, I tried various configurations with CSS but I always stay in top nick and attached to the avatar.

Thank you very much.

You may try to use table?

Try using code like this:

<table>
<tr>
<td>{vb:raw memberaction_dropdown}</td>
<td>{vb:raw post.onlinestatus}</td>
<td>{vb:raw template_hook.dbtech_status}</td>
</tr>
</table>

And play with width of td of each element till you're satisfied with results if needed.

Thinking of it, different browser could produce different results.

[gamerzhut]

Please enter the prefix you would like to add to all statuses. 

For example, entering is would produce the following: 

{username} is .........
