Usergroup in postbit

[Darkblade]

How to display a user's group in postbit while viewing a thread?

ie:

Group: Administrator
Join Date: Aug 2005
Location: Cleveland, Ohio
Age: 20
Posts: 1,500

Well here's an example using the postbit_legacy template. Find

   <div class="smallfont">
    &nbsp;<br />
    <if condition="$post['joindate']"><div>$vbphrase[join_date]: $post[joindate]</div></if>
    <if condition="$post['field2']"><div>$vbphrase[location_perm]: $post[field2]</div></if>
    <if condition="$post['age']"><div>$vbphrase[age]: $post[age]</div></if>
    <div>

and add the red text, as shown below

   <div class="smallfont">
    &nbsp;<br />
    [COLOR=#000000][COLOR=red]<div class="smallfont">Group: $post[displaygrouptitle]</div>[/COLOR]  [/COLOR]
    <if condition="$post['joindate']"><div>$vbphrase[join_date]: $post[joindate]</div></if>
    <if condition="$post['field2']"><div>$vbphrase[location_perm]: $post[field2]</div></if>
    <if condition="$post['age']"><div>$vbphrase[age]: $post[age]</div></if>
    <div>

At least that should work, try it and see how you get on.

It works, thanks buddy.

Toptip but - You dont need the class identifier in the string as small font is already being used.
So you can get away with:

<div>Group: $post[displaygrouptitle]</div>

Alternativelym use the alt1 class to make the group stand out (alt2 being the class used for the thread/post header)
i.e

<div class="alt1">Group: $post[displaygrouptitle]</div>

how about IF that user is a member of XX usergroup?

I have a secondary usergroup that some members belong to. I would like to display badges for under the avatar in postbit.

A lot of good references to conditionals in the manual here:

http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/main/template_conditionals

and at this site:

Neither of those pages mention membergroupids Trevor.. is there anywhere that does?

From memory, it's been something that's never been possible (unless it got 'fixed' in a release that I missed).

Thanks Ace, that's what I noticed as well.

Those show how to show something TO a member of a usergroup, but not how to make something show ON a person that is a MEMBER of a usergroup.

Note: I need this to work on secondary usergroups as well as primary.

Like, let's say.. I have a group of people who are in Registered Users, but some of them have paid for a Gold Membership. I want to be able to display something for those members, while leaving them in the Primary group of Registered Users? Then, some of those people have also been around for the whole time the site has been up, so they are also in a Secondary group called Founders. I want to be able to display both things for these people.

Etc, etc.

If anyone's figured this out, it would be awesome to know.

(Yes, Ranks are available, and that's the only way I have come up with, would prefer to be able to <vb:if> them if possible.)

+1 for this
