PM Security Certificate

Keywords: PM, Private Message, Security, Verification

Description:

Informs the user that the PM they are reading was in fact sent by forum staff.

Details:

This template modification was developed by request [LINK] of RED SPIDER.

I opted not to phrase this as that would be more effort than this modification really deserves. I've included the image file used in the screenshot.

Installation:

In either POSTBIT and/or POSTBIT_LEGACY, paste the following code at the top.

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT=='private' && is_member_of($post, 5, 6, 7)">
<br />

<table cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="98%" align="center" style="border-bottom-width:0px">
<tr>
	<td class="alt1" width="30"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/verified.gif" width="27" height="32" alt="Verified!" /></td>
	<td class="alt2"><strong><font size="2" color="#339900">V E R I F I E D</font></strong><br /><font size="1">This message was sent by an official <strong>$vboptions[bbtitle]</strong> staff member. It's contents can be trusted.</font></td>
</tr>
</table>

<br />
</if>

Upload the image to /images/misc/

Find code just go to your admincp and Styles & Templates >> Search in Templates

And find the codes to replace

<<<<< "Postbit" is the same setup as vb.org with the names added there

'postbit_legacy' is if you have the new way of having the names and things above the post.

Make sure you back your code up before changing things in case you make a mistake
