Show Thread Enhancements - [OzzModz] Different Post Body Background For Admin And Mods

Another mod brought to you by,


Here is a small modification you can do to have a different background in posts, set to users in your Admin and moderator groups, in postbit legacy.

Meaning, you can have a background in the posts for your admins, and a different one for your mods.

To get this to work, follow the instructions in the attached Different Post Body Background For Admin And Mods.txt file

I don't have any screenshots at the moment, I'll try to get some. Or if some of you use this mod, please share a screenshot of what you have done.

While that may be possible, it might be a giant pain in the arse, think of all the things a admin might want to use it for, their could be literally thousands, and I don't know how to add that without the product being extremely bloated.

I will take your word on this...
You are competent in these matters, I just dream of possibilities and download every worthy mod because I am useless...

Cheers Mr Ozmod..

Carry on!

Two very useful and important features :up:

Really looking forward to this Ozzy

Like the suggestion for top poster of the month background, but not in this mod, maybe a separate mod.

Would also be a cool way to have thread starter (OP) displayed

As a background image in the postibt? I thought that was just a regular image on top of the postbit (instead of underneath the postbit message).

There is eight locations to choose from where to display the OP in the postbit.

It will use stylevars for the images, so you can easily set a different images for admins/mods in different styles.

That's excellent news. :up:

Could you make it that we could use CSS, not just images, as I'd like to control all elements and I'll rather change color of post body, than just place there image.

Now I use image for red and yellow card (you can see it here: http://slobodni.net/t109986/), with template edit I still didn't described, but it's very similar how you do it here. But, for this purpose I'd like to change background color, not add image. Or, maybe someone would like to do both things (I played a lot with this before I decided to go only with image for red and yellow card).

And yes, would you include different options for post from supermods? As we have three default administration groups. And some forums could have additional staff groups. Just asking...

[ozzy47]

Well if I get it to work, (I have ran into a snag, ) you will be able to use a color for the background, as it is a stylevar, as long as you use the full background image option.

It will probably only have the ability for groups you designate as admins and and mods/supermods to have different backgrounds, so only two different types available, not a separate one for supermods.

[ozzy47]

OK I believe I have the snag I ran into worked out, thanks to the help of other developers here. So I will continue working on this, but the snag did put me a bit behind.
