Status : Online/Offline/Idle hack !?

[PurpleCow]

Hello,

Without the IDLE option, i tried to install the hack for Status : Online and Offline for my boards, but having problems.

This is how I did :

Opened showgroups.php

Replaced all occurances of postbit_online with online
Replaced all occurances of postbit_offline with offline

Saved it back to my forums root directory.

Then Added two new templates :

1. "online" with this code in it :
<smallfont>Status : <B>Online</B></smallfont>

2. "offline" with this code in it :
<smallfont>Status : <B>Offline</B></smallfont>

Then in the "postbit" template, I added this $onlinestatus , where i wanted.

What I actually want to appear in the postbit is
Status : Online for online users &
Status : Offline for offline users

And that is what my two new templates reflect.

But, I am getting an image in the postbit, instead of text, what i wanted. How can i get the text as i mentioned above ??

Thanks for help.

Cheers
