Hidden admin color option in subSilver?

Post by Alegis »

Hey,

I'm using B5 dev and I wish to disable the coloring around the nicknames when admins post. Thing is, I found out where options such as p.moderator get their colors - but no mention at all of admin defined color or the color red.

Is this hidden somewhere else? I tried the CSS files and all and I think I'm going blind.


Another question, how do I easily disable the Report Post option? I have not found this either. I think of merely taking out the report button in the theme though.

The colors are defined in the Admin panel for each group.
When you set a group as a default for an user, the group color becomes their color.

Ah yes I see now. Lovely.

It needs some getting used to, everything worked out in the admin panel than files. Extremely nice.


Another quick Styles related question: I wanted to integrate custom forum ranks, but realized I could do that with custom profile fields. However, only displaying a profile field in profile is enabled by default. Where do I change it so I could have that field appear under de forum nick (without the Forum title: prefix). Or should I go manual after all.


edit: nvm found it, very intuitive system. Absolutely gorgeous.

Strange. I have a custom field eigentitel, display on topic is enabled; however it does not show up when executed with (instead it merely displays the command in the topic).
<!-- IF postrow.S_PROFILE_FIELD1 -->
<!-- Use a construct like this to include admin defined profile fields. Replace FIELD1 with the name of your field. -->
<br /><b>{postrow.PROFILE_FIELD1_NAME}:</b> {postrow.PROFILE_FIELD1_VALUE}
<!-- ENDIF -->

<!-- BEGIN custom_fields -->
<br /><b>{postrow.custom_fields.PROFILE_FIELD_NAME}:</b> {postrow.custom_fields.PROFILE_FIELD_VALUE}
<!-- END custom_fields -->

{postrow.PROFILE_eigentitel_VALUE} didnt work. Or S_PROFILE, or without profile. Or without the IF clause.

I don't wish to use the custom fields field (which displays all custom profile fields that can be viewn in profile) as I only want one of these in the topic.

Any tips?

Did you try {postrow.PROFILE_EIGENTITEL_VALUE}?

Klors made the right suggestion. All variable names have to be upper case (no matter what your fieldname is).

Thanks, that does work.
It's amazing how much can be changed from the ACP without the need for external mods, or without touching the FTP.

Can i hijack this thread to ask if anyone knows of a way to modify the bold from all usernames that are in groups?

Take this forum, the people in the Support Group (and set to primary group) are always displayed with a bold golden style, and i really hate this.
I dont mind the colouring, its the forced bold which i dont like and i cant find where i can modify this value so that these uses stand out no more than a bog-standard 'registered user' member.

Anyone know if this is possible to 'fix'?

Thx
