It is the same, you are right.

I disabled all the plugins withous success. Anyway, I asked vBulletin.com and they said they couldn't help me because "it is a modification".

Maybe I should stop trying it?

Thanks for all kh99, you helped me a lot. :up::up::up:

Well, if it isn't working there's something wrong. If you can see the correct user group id, then

<vb:if condition="$post['usergroupid'] == 6">

</vb:if>

should be working for you. We determined that condition="1" works, so we're pretty much down to the point where there's nothing left except PHP not working right! (Well, OK, not quite - you could look at the compiled template and see what PHP is being evaluated).

Sorry, but what do you mean by compiled template? Do you mean the postbit_legacy or the .php file?

[kh99]

I mean the PHP code that is eval()'d when the template is rendered. At some point it will be in $vbulletin->templatecache['postbit_legacy'] and you could display it or write it to a file.

Solved it, at last. The problem is that field5 was a private field. That is why I saw it but other members didn't.
