With this Mod :


http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=22561.0

[Jerry]

that mod shows what color they are, not thier colors everywhere thier name is shown

There is a topic on how to do this in topic display in Feature Requests. You could do it in whos viewing this topic/board too, but that would require some minor modification of the sources.

[Nidoking]

Do you know how to modify the sources in order to have the latter done?

[Kirby]

Sure do
In Display.php, find:

This is kind of based off of the one from BoardIndex, so thank the developers

[diplomat.]

[Nidoking]

Thanks a lot! It worked to perfection!

[Jerry]
