On my first vb forum one of my administrators there had added a second title (Administrator), and made it bold. Someone from vb tech removed it for me, and I never knew how it was added or removed. Well recently I installed my 3rd vb forum, and used impex to import all the usergroups and forums from my original forum. Now all of my users have the second bold Administrators title. It shows when they post. You can see it here in this public forum:

How do I remove this from certain usergroups? Also how to I add this in the future?

Sometimes there are imported ranks that inappropriately apply to all groups. You may want to delete them:

Admin CP -> User Ranks -> User Rank Manager

After changing ranks you need to run this counter:

Admin CP -> Maintenance -> Update Counters -> Update User Titles and Ranks

Thanks that got rid of them!

Now how do I add a second user title in bold? I want to add them to two specific usergroups, and allow them to be customizable.

You can use HTML markup in fixed titles but not in custom titles, unless you as the admin manually set their custom title in their user profile:

Admin CP -> Users -> Search for Users

Find their account and edit their profile. You can edit their title. And make sure to select Yes, admin set (HTML allowed) in the menu.

I want to add a second title, and make it bold so it would show like this:

Currently I can only ad one user title per member, and I would like to have two for 3 of my usergroups. I look forward to your response.

You can use a HTML break like this:



TITLE ONE<br />TITLE TWO

Thanks Jake, can you tell me where to add this?

In the user title field when editing the user after finding their account:

Admin CP -> Users -> Search for Users

Is there any way to add a second title to an entire usergroup? One that is customizable, and the other that is not?

Also how do I make the titles bold? I added this:

[ B ] usertitle [ /B ]

and the coding shows up in the forums
