Steve B. Is there any money to had being a geek? I been working at it but I ain't getting richer for it.

I know I set myself up for that dumb bass player remark. Jess you try playing Brown eyed girl without me.

No, really.. I'm not complaining. But you know who makes REALLY good money?

Chick magnets.

I'm still trying to get the infinity symbol to show there.

Isn't the forum based on vBulletin ?? .. Why don't ya just edit the template that displays a post.

I see from what it says in the V3 manual that you are using the legacy postbit layout (columns not rows), so the template name should be either postbit_legacy in V3 or postbit in V2.

All you should need to do is to replace the template code that prints the users post count with a conditional - something like -

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[username] == 'codemonkey'">
    <p>Posts: are for dogs to pee up</p>
<else />
    <p>Posts: the real post count</p>
</if>

That way the dreived values will remain intact and won't screw up the math, but the display does what you want it to do ... Sorry, I've never worked with vBulletin and I don't know the templating system, hence I can't provide any real code beyond the skeleton above, which I just ripped and modified straight from the manual ...

RTFM breadcrumb trail is ...
Styles & Templates / vBulletin 3 Style Reference / Templates / Template Conditionals
and
Styles & Templates / vBulletin 3 Style Reference / Templates / The Legacy Postbit Template

enjoy,

Kevin

Howdy, everyone. I'm not wanting to start any further dust-ups (like there haven't been enough as it is), but I just wanted to remind everyone of the handy built in features offered by the forum software--namely, the buddy/ignore functions.

Thanks, Jason.

My eyes are glazed over and I need a drool cup.

For the majority of us, myself included, it's a passion.

No money to be made.
