Smilies in user titles

This is a very simple, yet fun hack that I made on my site. It allows the user titles to have smilies in them.

Here is the thread view and the profile view of the hack:

http://www.ls1.com/forums/member.php...fo&userid=4112

It is accomplished by adding one line of code to the following files:

forumdisplay.php
member.php
private.php
admin/functions.php

In forumdisplay.php:
Look for the following code:

PHP Code:

     if ($announcement[customtitle]==2) {
       $announcement[usertitle] = htmlspecialchars($announcement[usertitle]);
                 } 


And replace it with the following:

PHP Code:

     if ($announcement[customtitle]==2) {
       $announcement[usertitle] = htmlspecialchars($announcement[usertitle]);
                 }
     $announcement[usertitle]=bbcodeparse($announcement[usertitle]); 


In member.php
Look for the following code:

PHP Code:

  eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("getinfo")."\");"); 


And replace it with the following:

PHP Code:

  $userinfo[usertitle]=bbcodeparse($userinfo[usertitle]);
  eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("getinfo")."\");"); 


In private.php
Look for the following code:

PHP Code:

    if ($post[customtitle]==2) {
      $post[usertitle] = htmlspecialchars($post[usertitle]);
    } 


And replace it with the following:

PHP Code:

    if ($post[customtitle]==2) {
      $post[usertitle] = htmlspecialchars($post[usertitle]);
    }
    $post[usertitle]=bbcodeparse($post[usertitle]); 


In admin/functions.php
Look for the following code:

PHP Code:

                if ($post[customtitle]==2) {
                        $post[usertitle] = htmlspecialchars($post[usertitle]);
                } 


And replace it with the following:

PHP Code:

                if ($post[customtitle]==2) {
                        $post[usertitle] = htmlspecialchars($post[usertitle]);
                }
                $post[usertitle]=bbcodeparse($post[usertitle]);

I can do it with one line of code added.

wait a min

Ok, that will work if you only want it in the posts. What about the member.php? And I have the usertitle on my forumhome and use $bbuserinfo[usertitle]. And the announcements one was included in the hack, too. Is there a way to include them all in one line of code? Globally? Buddy, friend, pal o' mine?

sure..

in admin/functions.php find

PHP Code:

if ($post['receivepm'] and $enablepms==1) {
    eval("\$post[pmlink] = \"".gettemplate("postbit_sendpm")."\";");
} else {
    $post[pmlink] = "";
} 


and place this below it and it should work perfectly.

PHP Code:

        $post[usertitle] = bbcodeparse($post[usertitle],0,$allowsmilies);

yes yes.. I had it somewhere but since I my server went down I lost alot of code... he should really use the function this way...

PHP Code:

$var[usertitle] = bbcodeparse($var[usertitle],0,$allowsmilies); 


[Boofo]

Will that handle all of the different user titles and where should we put this, sir?

[Neo]

well I am saying hs used this

bbcodeparse($announcement[usertitle]);

I should be changed to the code I used.. it makes it more forum dynamic... but if I get it to work again I will post it

[Boofo]

So, then there really is no way to get all of the different user title variables in one piece of code and do it globally then? It was worth a shot.

It works in 2.2.8, if anyone is curious. (Installed!)
