Nice little addition. Is it possible to get it working in Blocks too do you think?

Custom forum blocks can be written to use username markup.

I don't think there are any plugin hooks for the default forum blocks, but I could be wrong.

Another nice one. Thanks a lot for your work.

what is the difference between this and e360 markup?

I have no idea...I never used anything but my own. I've seen similar mods used on other sites, but there were always HTML issues (which mine does not suffer from). I recently saw issues being reported for a similar product, so I thought I would offer mine as an alternative.

Hi Mark,

I think this mod is causing this error for me?

It's the only plugin using the memberaction_dropdown hook.

Any ideas what I need to change?

Thanks.

Try changing that plugin so that its code reads:

PHP Code:

global $vbulletin;

if ($vbulletin->options['markfl_umitb_active'] AND !$memberinfo['musername'] AND $memberinfo['userid'])
{
    $user_info = fetch_userinfo($memberinfo['lastposterid']);
    $memberinfo['musername'] = fetch_musername($user_info);
}
