Is there a variable that contains the name of the current page? I can't seem to find one.

THIS_SCRIPT

But it's a constant, not a variable, so don't use $

One more that should be added to the BBuserinfo list is $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]

This one is really useful, so I think it should be added.

How do I use THIS_SCRIPT in a conditional to check if on the forum index page?
This is what I have right now but it's not working:
Code:
<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT != 'index.php'">
 <td class="forumbitforumlevel1post">$forum[lastpostinfo]</td><!-- -->
 <td class="forumbitforumlevel1post">$forum[threadcount]</td><!-- -->
 <td class="forumbitforumlevel1post">$forum[replycount]</td><!-- -->
</if>
I've placed it inside the forumbit_forum_level1_post as I want the thread and post info displayed in tabular form in the displayforum page but not on the homepage.
I've tried using the $vboptions[homeurl] and $vboptions[bburl] to no avail.


--------------- Added [DATE]1237927008[/DATE] at [TIME]1237927008[/TIME] ---------------

I've just found the answer to my question here:
http://forum.vbulletinsetup.com/f18/...list-2185.html

In other words it should be this:
Code:
<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT != 'index'">
