Custom Title -- Need help

[souljaa]

Hey guys! Anyways, I have my own forum (www.gfxpros.ej.am) and I was wondering if it was possible to make a username's Custom Title Bold or Italic or in Color?? Or if there's any MOD for that??
Thanks a lot!
Really appreciate the help!

in Display.template.php:

Find:

Code Select Expand


// Show the member's custom title, if they have one.
if (isset($message['member']['title']) && $message['member']['title'] != '')
echo '
', $message['member']['title'], '<br />';


Make it:

Code Select Expand


// Show the member's custom title, if they have one.
if (isset($message['member']['title']) && $message['member']['title'] != '')
echo '
<b>', $message['member']['title'], '</b><br />';

replace <b> with <i> and </b> with </i> for italic

for colors, <span style="color: colorname;" where <b> is and </span> where </b> is

Hey BlackMage! Thanks! But is it possible for just one specific user?

You can do something like this:

Code Select Expand

// Show the member's custom title, if they have one.
if (isset($message['member']['title']) && $message['member']['title'] != '')
if($message['member']['id'] == 1)
echo ' <b>', $message['member']['title'], '</b><br />';
else
echo '
', $message['member']['title'], '<br />';

Changing the 1 in that code with the member id you want to do this for.

In the display.template.php?

[codenaught]

Yes, you would be replacing this original code in Display.template.php:

Code Select Expand


// Show the member's custom title, if they have one.
if (isset($message['member']['title']) && $message['member']['title'] != '')
echo '
', $message['member']['title'], '<br />';

Sorry to bring this back up! But what if I want to do the same, but for a username? And each one is specific, and different for each member?
Thanks!

buggy's code is already user specific.

Code Select Expand

// Show the member's custom title, if they have one.
if (isset($message['member']['title']) && $message['member']['title'] != '')
if($message['member']['id'] == 1)
echo ' <b>', $message['member']['title'], '</b><br />';
else
echo '
', $message['member']['title'], '<br />';

see the:
if($message['member']['id'] == 1)?

To add more, just add another

Code Select Expand

if($message['member']['id'] == 1)
echo ' <b>', $message['member']['title'], '</b><br />';

above the else but after the other code.  example:

Code Select Expand

// Show the member's custom title, if they have one.
if (isset($message['member']['title']) && $message['member']['title'] != '')
if($message['member']['id'] == 1)
echo ' <b>', $message['member']['title'], '</b><br />';
        if($message['member']['id'] == 2)
echo ' <b>', $message['member']['title'], '</b><br />';
if($message['member']['id'] == 3)
echo ' <b>', $message['member']['title'], '</b><br />';
               
                else
echo '
', $message['member']['title'], '<br />';

Thanks Metallica, but I was wondering if it was possible to put codes of colours? Like #FF00FF for more colours? I tried it, doesn't work, is there a way I could?

Thanks Metallica, but I was wondering if it was possible to put codes of colours? Like #FF00FF for more colours? I tried it, doesn't work, is there a way I could?

echo ' <b><font color="#FFFFFF">', $message['member']['title'], '</font></b><br />';

[metallica48423]

you could do as said, but <font> is deprecated.  While it will work it will not validate if you run your site through an html validator.

Use

Code Select Expand

<span style="color: #FFFFFF">', $message['member']['title'], '</span> instead.

where #FFFFFF is the hex code of that color (if you need help with hex codes, check google ).

[souljaa]

Thanks! Works perfect!!!!! .

[souljaa]

Is there a way to make it possible to see the colour when we go check our profile?
Thanks!!

PS: Sorry for all the trouble

Hey guys! Really sorry to bring this topic back, but I was just wondering, I wanted to use this again, for my new forum and I was wondering, I did exactly as said, but every time I put the code in, the Custom Title just dissapears completely. Is there any change I have to make? Doesn't seem to work. Tried it several times.
Thank you

Are you still using 1.1.x?  The code posted may not work if you have upgraded to 2.0 or changed themes.  Also you may want to try different colors, in case you are changing it to the color of the background.
