hmm it's not that easy...

well we'll try

open admin/functions.php

find:

PHP Code:

        if ($post[showsignature] and $allowsignatures and trim($post[signature])!="" and ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0 or $bbuserinfo[showsignatures])) {
            if (!isset($sigcache["$post[userid]"])) {
                $post[signature]=bbcodeparse($post[signature],0,$allowsmilies);
                eval("\$post[signature] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_signature")."\";");
                $sigcache["$post[userid]"] = $post[signature];
            } else {
                $post[signature] = $sigcache["$post[userid]"];
            }
        } else {
            $post[signature] = "";
        } 


and change it to:

PHP Code:

        if (!isset($sigcache[$post['userid']] and $post[showsignature] and $allowsignatures and trim($post[signature])!="" and ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0 or $bbuserinfo[showsignatures])) {
            if (!isset($sigcache["$post[userid]"])) {
                $post[signature]=bbcodeparse($post[signature],0,$allowsmilies);
                eval("\$post[signature] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_signature")."\";");
                $sigcache["$post[userid]"] = $post[signature];
            } else {
                $post[signature] = $sigcache["$post[userid]"];
            }
        } else {
            $post[signature] = "";
        } 


that should show up a sig just once per page...

once per thread, would be more difficult and would add a query per post, so you shouldn't do it
