My instructions above were for if you chose to add a phrase to the Phase Manager. Which if you opened up, you would see what I'm talking about.

ok, im kinda understanding this some...where would i find the phrase manager? sound that would be the correct way to edit this right? if i just changed what i want that to say minus the phrase...would it recognize that user's name automatically?

Yes, probably the best way to do it. It should recognize the user name if you add the entires I posted above. Go to Admin CP ? Languages & Phrases ? Phrase Manager ? Add New Phrase and add the two entires I showed you and it should work.

<font color="Orange">Digital Jedi</font> that worked beautifully...i understand I was asking it something it didnt understand...until i gave it what it needed to look for. Thank you very much.

does it matter i made the caode change in both postbit and postbit_legacy? everything seems to be working, so should i even bother messing with it now? Thanks again, happy new year!!!

It will only matter if you ever decide to start using the other postbit layout. Since the code is the same for both layouts, you can leave it or revert it at your choosing.
