\*================================================ ======================*/

What does this modification do?
This modification allows users to specify their 'own' HTMLwhich surrounds their username. It is similar to that which is used for the Usergroup HTML Markup, however this modification is more restrictive. (Note: Markup is only applied in cases where the Usergroup Markup is typically applied).

Features:

• Users can choose:
  • Italics
  • Bold
  • SmallCaps
  • Text Decoration
    • Underline
    • Overline
    • StrikeThrough
  • Font Color
  • Background Color
  • Font Family/Face
• Admins can choose to:
  • Global Enable/Disable
  • Ban Certain Users
  • Ban Certain Font Colors
  • Enable/Disable each Option globally
  • Enable/Disable each Option Per Usergroup
  • Choose whether User HTML Markup overrides Usergroup HTML Markup

To install:

1. Upload Files
   • Upload functions_op_user_html_markup.php to the '/includes/' directory of your forum
   • Upload bitfield_op_user_html_markup.xml to the '/includes/xml/' directory of your forum
2. Import Product
   • Import the product as normal through the AdminCP. AdminCP > Plugins & Products > Manage Products
3. Accessing Product
   • To use this product the user can find the options listed on the UserCP > Edit Options page.

Troubleshooting & Common Problems

• If you forget to upload the files before importing the product, simply upload the files and then visit the AdminCP > Usergroups > Usergroup Manager page. (This is required to rebuild the bitfield cache after uploading a file). This only needs to be done if you do not upload the files before the import.

Wonderful and really great Hack, Opserty Finally someone who is using Bitfield Permissions where they belongs to, instead of placing those in vB Settings like other hacks!!! Installed and Nominated :up:

Tip: Maybe another good way is to place those Settings into the "Customize Profile" instead of "Edit Options" UserCP. Just an idea of course

I tried to set for the admin in user cp\options.

Usergroup settings for admin is allowed all for this markup except for italic font.

When try to change the text decoration to 1 of the available options, such as strikethrough and save, the text decoration go back to : use default.

Is this normal ? because the admin username is not strikethrough

Good hack though :up:

There are no template hooks there, as such it would require a template edit. (Hence I opted to stick it in the Edit Options template, to avoid forcing people to make a template edit.

I will look into, maybe I have made a small error somewhere.

OMG THANKS! I originally requested this, you rock man!

Can this appear in the header for where users are logged in? Eg:

Welcome NegativeSmoke

but show my name in colors?

Also, can you add a BORDER option? So you can have a solid, dashed or dotted border around your name? and it doesn't show up in the online list, It should....

Try following this topic it should show up then:Username HTML Markup in Navbar

Also, can you add a BORDER option? So you can have a solid, dashed or dotted border around your name?

I'll consider it for future releases once I have fixed any bugs

and it doesn't show up in the online list, It should....

Will be looked into. Edit: Seems to work fine for me.

[DarkGizmo]

The link you posted doesn't work, and I use version 3.7.2 Patch Level 2, could that have something to do with it? Can i see a working preview of the mod?

This is very odd...and I would really like the border option, thanks.

[Opserty]

Oops sorry: Username HTML Markup in Navbar

Oh you're right, I was getting mixed up between the Members List and the Online list. I'll take a look and see what is going on.

(Border option may not be added for a while - till I fix bugs at least)

[DarkGizmo]

Okay and when that comes could you also add it so it shows in:

forum display (forumdisplay.php) and last post info? (Forum Home)

Thanks alot.
