POstbit to not show in specific forum?

[kofoid]

Is there a way to hide the postbit on certain forums?

[peterska2]

Would this be the postbit in it's entireity, or everything bar the posters name, or anything else?

Please post more details, and if possible some photoshopped impressions of what you are after, and I will see what I can do.

Note: if you are wanting to have the users names removed, then you will also require the signatures removing, otherwise it will still be obvious who has posted.

Heh...Or something like:

<if condition="$thread['forumid'] == x">
<else />
Postbit content here...
</if>

The forumid "x" entered will display nothing.

That wouldn't actually work, as the postbit template controls the entire post, not just the user info. Hence my questions about exactly how the thread starter wants it to work.

Isn't that was kofoid wanted? LOL. I too should have asked kofoid to clarify "hide the postbit" but I took it literally and went ahead with the code. While the code will hide the entire postibit for a particular forum it wouldn't make much sense in the least since no useful information would be displayed.

hehehe thanks you two! I actually am looking to have it only show the standard vb postbit info. I have all sorts of add-ons like P3tz, Flags, vbPlaza, etc.... so I want all of that stuff hidden and only Name, Title, Join Date and Posts showing.

[peterska2]

ok, put

<if condition="$thread['forumid'] != x">
Code for additional stuff
</if>

so that it goes around the code for the postbit modifications (eg p3tz, flags, etc) which will prevent it from showing in that forum number (where 'x' is the forumid number), but will show everywhere else.

I still like the wiping the entire postbit off the Show Thread page. I'll find use for it somewhere. LOL.

*Reflects that he should have done it during April Fools Day*

LOL yeah OK well we have a year to do it now - but I like the April Fools Idea!

THANKS for the solution!
