[high]Step 2[/high]
[high]Go to User Profile Fields >> Add New User Profile Field[/high]

Choose A "Single-Line Text Box"

[high]Title:[/high] "Your Font In Posts"

[high]Description:[/high] This is the font in which will appear in your posts. (Ex: Tahoma)

[high]Display Size:[/high] 15

[high]Max length of allowed user input:[/high] 20


[high]HIT SAVE[/high]


[high]Step 3[/high]
Now go to edit your postbit template and search for this code:

$post[message]

Replace it with this

<if condition="$post['fieldx'] != '' OR $post['fieldx'] != ''">

<font style="font-family:$post[fieldx]; color:$post[fieldx];">$post[message]</font>

 

     <else />

$post[message]

</if>

Replace the first x in the condition statement with the ID of the ?Your Font Color In Posts? profile field, and replace the second with the ?Your Font In Posts? profile field. The X in font-family will be the id for the field in which you created in the first step and the X in color will be the id for the field in which you created in the first step. To view the id of the field created go to the "Profile Field Manager" and find the field ID of the field you made. (This appears under the "Name" column). It should show as fieldx where x is the ID.

Wow ok caps locks.

I like to have a clean forum without visual junk all over the place.

Surely there is a way to make it invisible in member profiles but have it work in posts.

Nevermind, sorry for wasting your time.

Lol no you're not wasting my time. You have to take out $customfields from memberinfo and manually insert each field that you want to show.

Is there a reason that my font goes small

And the font part of things is actually not working correctly...

[HHU]

Guess Unsure Why?

Is There A Simple Way Then Just To Add A Default Size Field

[Gio~Logist]

Yes there is.

Add this to the end of the <font tag.

font-size: 9pt;

Replace 9 with whatever size you wish.

When ever I post it reverts back to the regular fonts and color I can't get my font and color to show in my posts.....

[michaelbenson]

I think you need to a) calm down and b) adopt a more linient and friendly attitude.
If you want more people to use your modifications at least.
