Nice mod

[-Rock Lee-]

Trank you

[Steve]

Hey Rock Lee, is this permission based or does it show up in everyone's profile so the members can change their own color?

[-Rock Lee-]

@Steve They can choose their own color as long as the option for groups or for all is activated.

Works beautifully ... great job!

[-Rock Lee-]

Thank you, now I'm trying to do the same in 2.1 it took me some time to achieve because of the failures it gives me

[shadav]

thank you for this works great on 2.0.15

question, how can I get it to work on the profile page?

[GigaWatt]

Hmmm... will definitely try it . Great job BTW Rock Lee .

PS: Is your avatar by any chance a guy wearing a Scorpio costume?

[-Rock Lee-]

@shadav You just have to adapt / copy what is added in display.template.php to profile.template.php and it should work without problems. At this moment I am connected from my cell phone and I cannot do tests to confirm what you have to edit but when I am on the computer I will do tests and I will tell you .

@GigaWatt thanks I hope you enjoy it . If it is a scorpion costume priming some mates (infusion very taken in Argentina / Paraguay and southern Brazil). It emerged from a large event and just made a journalistic note about the video game costumes in addition to the Argentine association that was made (Even then Ermac appeared as a fernet preparer although he did not have the same impact).

References of what I say:
Mate > Fernet


Regards!

thank you no rush, just whenever you get time, it's not a big issue, just would be nice I tried but I failed only managed to turn the member name into #

Sorry @shadav for the delay is that I am with the university delivering final papers, I managed to have some time and I tried it with the theme default. You have to look in the Profile.template.php file on line 63 that you should see something like:

Code Select Expand

<h4>', $context['member']['name'], ' <span class="position">', (!empty($context['member']['group']) ? $context['member']['group'] : $context['member']['post_group']), '</span></h4>

and you have to leave it:

Code Select Expand

<h4><span style="color: ' . $context['member']['color_member'] . '">', $context['member']['name'], '</span> <span class="position">', (!empty($context['member']['group']) ? $context['member']['group'] : $context['member']['post_group']), '</span></h4>

It should work without problems as you wish if you have a custom theme and you cannot achieve it let me know to help you .

It would have to work since I tested it (as the attached image looks like), did you clear the browser cache? Can you pass me the site url?

@qwfpgjl SMF 2.0 or SMF 2.1?

Also, the author of this mod has passed away so the issue will not be fixed unless someone else is able to fix it.
