How to highlight ONE specific user? · **Released**: 06-18-2002

I'm looking for a way to highlight ONE user in a way that no one else can duplicate. The circumstances are we have one user that is often impersonated, and we need a quick, visual way that users can see that this post is undeniably from a particular user.

With an old system, we used to have a special icon and color, but that can be duplicated under the vBulletin we have installed.

Anyone have any ideas?

Edit the user's User Title, and surround it with <font color="whatever"> and </font>.

No...

There is no hacking required...

What if I inserted the following into the Censored Words field in the Custom User Titles?

PHP Code:


			
{<font color="green"><b>}

Would that stop anyone from using bold green as a color for their custom title?

Users can't use vbCode / HTML in user titles anyway. Only you can, by setting it from the Admin CP.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
