This works fine without change with vB 4.x

I've added a new thread though:

Where would this get installed to? I.e. which folder etc. I am a total neophyte.

Product files you import through the AdminCP

AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> [Add/Import Product]

I know this is a long reply, but I needed the same thing and I did the following:

Add a new plugin at: vba_cmps_module_recethreadbits (vbacmps)

Plugin code:

PHP Code:

$thread['title'] = str_replace("[YOU]", $vbulletin->userinfo[username], $thread['title']);  
$thread['title'] = str_replace("[you]", $vbulletin->userinfo[username], $thread['title']);

Works great. Just wish it worked inside chat boxes. Would have created a lot of chaos and fun.
Is there a permission thing on this mod or can any user group use it?

Sorry to say but the you code is showing up as code on the latest forum statistics. Look at the attached pic. Hope there is a solution.

If you see my previous post, you is the first word but still shows up as you. How did you get it to work?

Sorry for the extra posts..if some one can merge them. Thank you.

Just found out that in subscription notification emails it also shows up as you not the name. All my members figured it out because it is showing code all over the place. Now if I want to uninstall, will the you code just stick out? Do I have to delete the code from every post I made? Tough job.

This is a great way to get lurkers to post... I posted a thread with the title, Hey [you] and text to make it seemed like I cared how they were doing (I did care, just not enough to start a unique thread for everyone) and it seemed like dozens of lurkers came out of the woodwork to post- of course once some members figured it out hilarity ensued...

Anyway, any chance of getting a [me] version of this mod? I know there is the /me mod but it doesn't work in nearly as many places as [you] does- I have it installed for now but would love a [me] that works exactly the same way as [you], except of course for my username is always posted. Other members suggested a [randomuser] code too- could be useful.

Solution is use a [you] mod that works on vb3.8.6

I un-installed this, for those of us who wish the word to be unknown this is useless.
