Look in showthread.php - you can hook into the query that fetches user info, and add a join.

Thanks, walking through your problem helped me find the solution to mine. I was using,

<if condition="$post[userid] == 'Administrator'">

didn't work. BUT

<if condition="$post[userid] == 1">

DID!

Thanks again

Thanks for reply.But could you plz specify which portion of code is retrieving user info for postbit legacy in 'showthread.php'.Is there any other modification for sending variable to template for available there?

Did you look at the showthread.php page? There is a nice big query around line 1000 (or so, my file is edited) where the posts and all the information about the posts (including the user info) is gathered. There is a hook right above there.
