Allow BB code to parse in Member titles on their profile page

If you happen to want to allow BB code to be in custom titles, you can do this simple modification to make BB code parse in titles on profile pages.

Open up member.php

Find:

PHP Code:

// CUSTOM TITLE
if ($userinfo['customtitle'] == 2)
{
    $userinfo['usertitle'] = htmlspecialchars_uni($userinfo['usertitle']);
} 


Change that to:

PHP Code:

// CUSTOM TITLE
if ($userinfo['customtitle'] == 2)
{
require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_bbcode.php');
$parser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($vbulletin, fetch_tag_list());
    $userinfo['usertitle'] = $parser->do_parse(htmlspecialchars_uni($userinfo['usertitle']), false, true, true, false, true, false);
} 


Now everything should parse properly, except for images, because they are not allowed. If you want to allow images to be added, change it to this instead:

PHP Code:

// CUSTOM TITLE
if ($userinfo['customtitle'] == 2)
{
require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_bbcode.php');
$parser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($vbulletin, fetch_tag_list());
    $userinfo['usertitle'] = $parser->do_parse(htmlspecialchars_uni($userinfo['usertitle']), false, true, true, true, true, false);
}

can be abused and can get ugly ...
For example, what if somone uses [SIZE=7], [IMG],[LIST], etc ... it can wreak havoc on a layout

granted some people may not do it ... but it's the others who you would have to worry about ... if you have a small site--nothing to worry about ... if you have a big site--it could be a lot of work (modifying title, warning, etc)

can you get this to work for any profile field, not just usertitles? i'd like my users to be able to put bbcode in a specific profile field.. thanks.

Is it possible to make this work elseware than just the member.php page, such as in posts?

I'm wondering this too. What would be the coding to make this work in posts, too?
