I threw this together as a practical joke. I installed a style for one of our private forums, and some members hated it. So, I set it so that one of those users was faced with that style in every forum - and couldn't change it.

If you want to force a user to a given style, do this:

1. Note your styleid and the userid of the person you want to torment.

In global.php Find:

Code:
// #############################################################################
// ######################## START TEMPLATES & STYLES ###########################
// #############################################################################
Add After
Code:
if($vbulletin->userinfo['userid']==useridhere)
{
  $codestyleid= styleidhere;
}
If you have a whole usergroup you want to torment, do this: (haven't tested this one)

Code:
if(is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo,usergroupidhere))
{
  $codestyleid= styleidhere;
}

That's different. It's an update of one of my older mods and certainly has it's uses.

This is a temporary code hack that can be used as a practical joke or even for users that you're trying to drive away. Both have their uses.
