Moderator Icon on postbit

This is a hack to show a small icon next to usernames on a post, when you mouse over you will also get told what rank they are, Admin, Super Mod or Moderator.

Add the following template
postbit_moderator_icon

<img src="{imagesfolder}/mod.gif" alt="$rank">

save the template

Edit the postbit template and place $mod_logo somewhere on it, i chose next to the username.

open up functions.php

look for

PHP Code:

        // do posts from ignored users
        if (!$ignore[$post[userid]]) { 


ABOVE it put

PHP Code:

        switch($post['usergroupid']) {
          case "6";
          $rank = "Administrator";
          eval("\$mod_logo = \"".gettemplate("postbit_moderator_icon")."\";");
          break;

          case "5";
          $rank = "Super Moderator";
          eval("\$mod_logo = \"".gettemplate("postbit_moderator_icon")."\";");
          break;

          case "7";
          $rank = "Moderator";
          eval("\$mod_logo = \"".gettemplate("postbit_moderator_icon")."\";");
          break;

          default:
          $mod_logo = "";
          break;
        } 


save and upload functions.php

The hack will now work, but if you want to save on the extra query to the database to get the template.

Open showthread.php and add

PHP Code:

,postbit_moderator_icon 


to the end of $templatesused you will have to do this twice.

attached is the mod logo i used

Umm, usertitle not username, and I only want the title to be bold if they are a moderator, super moderator, or administrator. I could do all the other suggestions myself.

PHP Code:

switch($post['usergroupid']) {
          case "6";
          $rank = "Administrator";
          $post[usertitle] = "<b>$post[usertitle]</b>";
          break;

          case "5";
          $rank = "Super Moderator";
          $post[usertitle] = "<b>$post[usertitle]</b>";
          break;

          case "7";
          $rank = "Moderator";
          $post[usertitle] = "<b>$post[usertitle]</b>";
          break;

          default:
          $rank = "";
          break;
        } 


use that code in your getpostbit function in /admin/functions.php

Where exactly would you add this in the getpostbit function?

Installed and works great - exactly what I wanted. Thanks

Great hack! (5 Stars)

I have modified this to add 3 different .gif files for each user group.

Mod, SuperMod, and Admin.

You can use your own .gif files or use the ones included.
