legacy_postbit Signature Spacing Mod

Here’s a mod that cleans up the signature & edit note spacing in the legacy_postbit template, leaving them at the bottom of the post regardless of how short the post is.

I replaced the __________________<br /> tag with an <hr> tag making the line cross the entire post.

If you prefer the old style, replace <hr size="1" style="color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" /> with the old __________________<br />

actually no ... not quite, the edited by bit looks wrong now, I have had a mess with it on my own and come up with this as an alternative:

In postbit_legacy (after the mod has been installed)

Find this:


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

<hr size="1" style="color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" />
<span class="smallfont">$post[signature]</span>
</if>
<!-- / End Signature -->

<!-- Edit Note -->
<if condition="$show['postedited']">

<div class="smallfont">
<hr size="1" color="$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" />
<em>
<phrase 1="$post[edit_username]" 2="$post[edit_date]" 3="$post[edit_time]">$vbphrase[last_edited_by_x_on_y_at_z]</phrase>.
<if condition="$post['edit_reason']">$vbphrase[reason]: $post[edit_reason]</if>
</em>
</div>

</if>
<!-- End Edit Note -->


Replace with this



!-- Edit Note -->
<if condition="$show['postedited']">

<div class="smallfont" align="right">
<em>
<phrase 1="$post[edit_username]" 2="$post[edit_date]" 3="$post[edit_time]">$vbphrase[last_edited_by_x_on_y_at_z]</phrase>.
<if condition="$post['edit_reason']">$vbphrase[reason]: $post[edit_reason]</if>
</em>
</div>

</if>
<!-- End Edit Note -->

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

__________________<br />
<span class="smallfont">$post[signature]</span>
</if>
<!-- / End Signature -->


This will make the "edited by" note move above the signature and justify it to the right, it will also restore the old "________" above the signature rather than the HR tag

Hope that helps people who are after an alternative view

This may sound silly.. but how did this website do it?

Notice the sig on Tonys post appears at the bottom even though his post is just a few words long.
