[OzzModz] Different Post Body Background For Admin And Mods · **Released**: 09-16-2013

Another mod brought to you by,

Here is a small modification you can do to have a different background in posts, set to users in your Admin and moderator groups, in postbit legacy.

Meaning, you can have a background in the posts for your admins, and a different one for your mods.

To get this to work, follow the instructions in the attached Different Post Body Background For Admin And Mods.txt file

I don't have any screenshots at the moment, I'll try to get some. Or if some of you use this mod, please share a screenshot of what you have done.

I believe you perform miracles....either that or you are knowledgeable in these instances.. Certainly a lot more knowledgeable and capable then I am...

Thanks for your effort and your time..

This would be a great addition! Maybe add the option to the dropdown menu.

I haven't looked at this mod in detail but it would be great if admins and mods could use separate images per usergroup.

I would probably add the option to the bottom of the reply box by the Miscellaneous Options.

It does, groups you decide to choose as admins, will have a different image from ones you choose as mods.

This could be really nice small mod (I'm not sure if it could be made into template change) for making official posts (i.e. posts where staff members write warnings, notices, or any other official communication to users) different from their normal posts they write as any other user.

Now staff members usually write posts with text in different color, but that could do all other users. This would be something that only staff members could use, write their posts with different background.

Yeah adding that option would allow your admins/mods to use it on certain posts like that.

I don't know about turning this into a full blown product without the template edits, but we shall see.

It certainly looks very interesting, if you can make it.

I don't have idea how you can achieve it only through template edits, but you certainly know much more than I do. :up:

I am making some good progress on turning this into a mod. It will have the option to use a full background image, or a image in the bottom right of the posts. A different image for admin groups, and mod groups.

A option in the ACP for you to select the image to show up always, or let the admins/mods to choose to show it on a new reply or new thread.

It will use stylevars for the images, so you can easily set a different images for admins/mods in different styles.

So far it looks like there will be no template edits to do either, and don't foresee a need to either.

Great stuff, another Ozmod. Can't wait to test the result..

Is there a possibility that this image could be added to any specific user at any given time? or applied to other usergroups other than admin/mod?
Example, top poster for the month, best admin of the month, biggest jerk of the month, day, week etc?

ozzy47 · #20 09-21-2013, 11:35 AM

No not as it is, that is not what it was designed for.

DemOnstar · #21 09-21-2013, 11:44 AM

Ok. I was just thinking it could be extended a little..
I would have liked to indicate (with a pic) in the post main body that this user is

Examples:
a. useless
b. profound
c. top of his/her class

At a glance, a user would see some classification indicated by the chosen pic...

For mods and admins only, it would seem superfluous...as this is stated in the post_bit...

Just a thought...

Obviously I will try it....You do have some good ideas sir...

Profound :up: here
