Keep User Group title for Moderators with a Custom Tag

On my forums, we give out a custom title at 3000 posts, so it's quite an acomplishment. Of course, the moderators want this too, even though they have to keep their "Moderator" or "Super Moderator" tags as well. Previously we were doing this through the admin panel, but that got a bit tidious, so I did a quick hack that will add moderator custom tags after the "Moderator" bit.

Install time: About 2 minutes - just one file edit

In member.php, after:

PHP Code:

$customtext = substr($customtext, 0, $ctMaxChars);
        $customtext = censortext($customtext);
        if (!ismoderator() or (ismoderator() and $ctCensorMod==0)) {
          $customtext = customcensortext($customtext);
        } 


Add:

PHP Code:

// Keep user group titles in addition to custom tags for mods
        // Add a user group id to the array definition below to make
        // this hack apply to that group as well:
        $keepgrouptitle = array(5, 6, 7);
        if (in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], $keepgrouptitle)) {
          $group = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT usertitle FROM usergroup WHERE usergroupid=$bbuserinfo[usergroupid]");
          $usertitle = $group['usertitle'];
          $customtext = $usertitle . '<br />' . $customtext;
          $customtitle = 1;
        }
// Keep user group titles in addition to custom tags for mods 


Yep, that's it . Let me know if there are any issues, trouble, ect.

Note: This will enble HTML for moderators in custom tags as well, but you can trust them not to use it. Right? aranoid:

If you use this hack, please hit the "Install" button on this thread so I know .

The latest version is merely a slight modification of the original, to allow for easier addition of user groups. Feel no need to upgrade, it doesn't actually change how the hack works except make it easier to modify.

Im not using this anymore. To many bugs. I made my own.
