Default or Retro

This will super simple mod will allow your users to have either a new styled vB3 postbit or the old vB2 postbit with out using phpinclude_start OR hacking


Step 1
Add a new profile field that is a single selction menu
Title: Postbit Style
Description: How all postbits will appear to you.
Options:
Default
Legacy

OR

Legacy
Default

(depending on WHICH you want to be default)
Default: Yes but not blank.

Now, Im going to assume you have NOT modifed your postbit template much and give you 2 predone full template bits, ill also give you 2 non predone bits that you must fill in for your self.

You need to chage the top line of any of the text files to make sure you have the number of the profile field replaced for X.

ok, now I am getting that parse error. wtf is going on? This is not that difficult to do. individually they save fine, together they don't

PHP Code:

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[field60] == Default">
<!-- new postbit -->
<!-- end new postbit -->
<else />
<!-- legacy postbit -->
<!-- end legacy postbit -->
</if>

well, looks like it was a typo in the no code template.

you have
<if condition="$bbuserinfo[field60] == Legacy">

should be
<if condition="$bbuserinfo[field60] == 'Legacy'">

No it shouldnt you should never use single quotes inside of conditionals.

only way i could get it to work and it does really work.

Zachery,

Nice work as usual.

[MegaHertz]

Zachery,

Is there anything that needs to be done in light of 3.0.2?

I noticed that the postbit_legacy template is listed as needing to be reverted.

Thanks

[Zachery]

If you revert it, it should still work if you reapply the mod

[MegaHertz]

IIRC your text files contain the complete contents of the template.

Won't there be some code that needs to be added or am I thinking about this the wrong way?

Thanks again.

[MegaHertz]

Disregard it tells me all of my templates are up to date.
