postbit / postbit_legacy chooser

[LuisManson]

Hi, i need a method to let the user choose a postbit if it is on a specific group, maybe an option in his profile

for VB 4.0.3

Thanks

I think there was a mod to do this, it involved adding a profile field that allowed the users to pick which style they wanted.
Or, you can always add a 2nd style that uses the postbit_ setup that isn't on your main style, then the users could just select the style they want.

no idea about the seccond metod im on my first week with VB
about the firstone, any link or idea if it might work?

assign your forum to use the postbit_legacy option under vBulletin Options -> Styling

Create a new profile field with a radio button (yes/no)
'Use postbit_legacy (information aligned to left)"

Then simply use an if condition in the postbit_legacy template to show the postbit

<if condition="$profile[fieldX] == 1">
Postbit_legacy code
<else >
Postbit code
</if>

nice, thanks!

Sorry if I'm wrong, but the right condition would be:

<vb:if condition="$user['fieldx'] == 1">
Postbit_legacy code
<vb:else />
Postbit code
</vb:if>

That's right?
