End-User Options - Username Font Selection Per User (Light) By BOP5 VB4

Version 1.0 - Initial Release
Version 1.1 - Bugfix for vB 4.1.4 and above
Version 1.7.7 - Critical Security Update
Version 1.8.0 - Added post count setting / Added existing Markup setting

Live Demo: Qapla.com Forums Demo (Gold Version).

The purpose of this mod is to let users pick a custom font (either from a list you specify or optionally, a custom font they choose) to show up wherever username markup is allowed. (The postbit, profiles, who's online, blogs, CMS, etc...)

This is the free version, you can let users choose a font.

The GOLD version allows users to to choose a font, a font size, and/or a font color- each permission with independent usergroup control.
Gold version available at: Qapla.com Forums - Username Color, Size, & Font Selection.

Both versions include a "Live Preview" option allowing users to instantly see the effect of their changes before saving.

Both versions automatically add the options in Settings -> General Settings page, at the bottom, for users with permission.

In both versions all options font (and color/ size in gold) are independently controllable by usergroup permissions, so for example you could let registered users pick a font, mods pick a font AND color, and VIP users pick a font, color, and size.

You can add or remove available fonts from the list in Admin CP.

In the Gold version you can add/remove available colors and you can set a range of allowable font sizes.

See Screenshots for more details.
Screenshots are of free version only. See the GOLD thread, above, for screenshots of GOLD version.

Anyone running VB 4.1.4 to 4.1.8 please see the bug notice in the next post.

But Using many font styles can slow down your webpage, so only select the font styles that you actually need on your webpage.

**Template issue at General Settings
Edit modifyoptions_bop5usernamefont (Modify User Option Templates > modifyoptions_bop5usernamefont) and then delete </div> at the top of the template will fix it.

hmmm I tried few fonts from google web fonts and they dont seen to be working

I just played with Google Web Fonts - very interesting.

Google will give you code like:

<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Vast+Shadow' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

Put that in your headinclude template.

Then add the font to your font list in the mod settings, changing the plus signs (+) into spaces. So "Vast Shadow" from this example.

Font Color is only an option in the Gold version as talked about in the top/first post. It will not be part of the free/light version.

Its work in 4.1.11? and with google fonts?

[BirdOPrey5]

It works in 4.1.11 yes.

It can work with Google Fonts but you have to add the code for the Google Fonts to the templates yourself- this doesn't automatically fetch a google font.

Posts count Required to Username Color, Size, and Font selection per User...you can add This Options in gold version ?

[BirdOPrey5]

A separate post count for each option, or just a post count to use the mod at all?

[Nirjonadda]

"Option based on Post Count" Permissions Based on Post Count...Post count user must have before can Username Color, Size, and Font selection .
