Need help with Custom Profile Field in Postbit - not working

[ExplosiveGFX]

I have a single line selection box profile field, with 2 options.

"Edit my photos"
"Don't edit my photos"

So, I'm trying to get this to display in the postbit, with a little color on each, to make it stand out, you know?

I'm following Steve's info in this post on vb.com

Here is my code:

<if condition="$post['field8'] & 1">
<font color="green">Feel free to edit my photos!</font>
</if>
<if condition="$post['field8'] & 2">
<font color="red">Please do <strong>NOT</strong> edit my photos!</font>
</if>

Nothing is showing up in my postbit.. it's below "$post['posts']" in postbit_legacy, what am I doing wrong?

Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

Wait...so which one of the profile fields are you using? Radio buttons?

[ExplosiveGFX]

Dropdowns.

Help?

Hi, try this:

 
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['field8'] == 'Feel free to edit my Photos.'">
<font color="green">Feel free to edit my photos!</font>
</if>
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['field8'] == 'Please do NOT edit my Photos.'">
<font color="red">Please do <strong>NOT</strong> edit my photos!</font>
</if>

The first text without HTML (Feel free to edit my Photos.) must be identical to the text field.

I hope this works for you

Ok, that semi works, it displays the option which you've chosen in your options for everyones postbit...

If it's in the postbit, you will probably want to use $post['field8'], not $bbuserinfo['field8']

[Javierogo]

Right, sorry!
Just change $bbuserinfo['field8'] by $post['field8'] to show the info from others.
