Show Thread Enhancements - Hide Signature and Avatar in specific forum

Hello everybody,

This is my first modification I post in vBulletin.org, and I hope it will be a good start for me and I keep posting new modifications for you.

Today's post is about hiding signature or/and avatars in threads in specific forum, its very easy and simple.

• Hiding signatures

First, open your postbit, or postbit_legacy template.


Find:

<if condition="$post['signature']">

Replace it with:

<if condition="$post['signature'] AND !in_array($thread['forumid'],array(2,47))">

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Replace 2 & 47 with the forum id you want to hide signatures from it, if you want to add more forum numbers add comma between them.

You're done !

• Hiding Avatars

Now we will do the same thing with avatars, its also easy like the signature hiding.
Open your postbit, or postbit_legacy template.


Find:

<if condition="$show['avatar']">

Replace it with:

<if condition="$show['avatar'] AND !in_array($thread['forumid'],array(2,47))">

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Replace 2 & 47 with the forum id you want to hide avatars from it, if you want to add more forum numbers add comma between them.



I hope this modification would be useful for everyone.


Regards,
Ibrahim Mohammed

                    <else />
                    $post[musername]
                    </if>

Replace with:

                    <if condition="$show['profile']" AND $thread['forumid']  != 2">
                    <a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[musername]</a>
                    $post[onlinestatus]
                    <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("postmenu_$post[postid]", true); </script>
                    <else />
                    $post[musername]
                    </if>

Now don't forget to follow this mod authors directions regarding the forum ID.

that should do it as when I removed that code the names were gone from my forums. I did not trick it via the forum id I simplt removed, saved, viewed, then corrected it back to original.

S-MAN

Thanks for the help- It didn't work quite right for me but I ended up figuring something else out for my problems.





I need help from someone on 2 last issues-

Removing the "last post" user name (or even the column)
Removing the "user name" for the thread starter.



IF someone could help me out in any kind of way it would be greatly appreciated.

Use it as this: (there was to many spaces in the previous example):

<if condition="$post['signature'] AND $thread['forumid']  != x,x,x,x,x">

Another route at the problem/s:

<if condition="in_array($forum[forumid], array(x,x,x,x,x))">

Something you want to hide

</if>

Any forum id not listing here (The x's need to be replaced)- would not see something in particular.

Not working even in single forum in 3.8.2

Could someone help me with:

Removing the "last post" user name (or even the column)
Removing the "user name" for the thread starter.

Could someone point me in a direction- it would be really helpful.

For the first code appears this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ',' in /var/www/vhosts/"my forum"/httpdocs/foros/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(3939) : eval()'d code on line 163

For the second code I don?t understand what it means

The error I don't know--

For the second code I'll explain:

Example- you wanted to hide your user name and user title in a specific forum- but not all forums.

You would open up you postbit_legacy and find the following (or similar):

<div id="postmenu_$post[postid]">
                <if condition="$show['profile']">
                <a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[musername]</a>
                <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("postmenu_$post[postid]", true); </script>
                <else />
                $post[musername]
                </if>
            </div>

            <if condition="$post['usertitle']"><div class="smallfont" align="center">$post[usertitle]</div></if>
            <if condition="$post['rank']"><div class="smallfont">$post[rank]</div></if>

Then before it you would add:

<if condition="in_array($forum[forumid], array(42,26,25,9,8))">

The forums with an Id of 42,26,25,9,8 would see their user names & titles but anything not listed in the array()) would not...

Then After it you would add:

</if>

I've done this in a whole sub-forum removing: (making it a anonymous sub-forum)

User Name
User Title
Post Count (if you know what you're doing you can pull a username off of the postcount # alone)
Location
Msn/yahoo/skype
Reputation
Add Rep
Infractions
Quote
Thanks
Signatures
Avatars


(Side Note: I'm running Vbulletin 3.8.1 pl1)

You should put ( ! ) Before ( in_array(); )
