Question about hack

[Roody]

i installed this hack : Name Colors

my problem is i have created a user group called Asst. Administrator and im wondering how i can adjust the code in this hack to reflect this role and make the appropriate color change.

any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Find the usergroupid for your Asst. Admin group, and change this:

PHP Code:

      if ($loggedin['usergroupid'] == 6 and $highlightadmin) {
         $username = "<b><i><font color=red>$loggedin[username]</font></i></b>"; // Color for Admin
      } else if (($loggedin['usergroupid'] == 5) and $highlightadmin) {
         $username = "<b><font color=darkred>$loggedin[username]</font></b>"; // Color for Supermod 


to this:

PHP Code:

      if ($loggedin['usergroupid'] == 6 and $highlightadmin) {
         $username = "<b><i><font color=red>$loggedin[username]</font></i></b>"; // Color for Admin
      } else if (($loggedin['usergroupid'] == replace_this_with_your_ass_admin_usergroup_id) and $highlightadmin) {
         $username = "<b><font color=somecolor>$loggedin[username]</font></b>"; // Color for Assistant admin (Remember to change the color)
      } else if (($loggedin['usergroupid'] == 5) and $highlightadmin) {
         $username = "<b><font color=darkred>$loggedin[username]</font></b>"; // Color for Supermod 


Do the replacement at both places.
Remember to back up your file, since I have not tested this.

Edit the template to reflect the addition too

ok here comes a bigtime newbie question. i am looking at modify usergroups and not seeing a User ID for my asst. administrator group. how do i find it?

[Sparkz]

Right click at the [edit]-link and choose 'Copy Shortcut'.
Paste it into an editor and look at the end of the link. It should say 'usergroupid=x'

thanks for that, that did the trick
