Well?

[Smiddy]

To difficult to code that I'm afraid, you get a choice of before HTML, and after HTML, no way of creating it different throughout.

Lies! *goes to create HTML for the name*

Its not impossible to create HTML for the name. Only to do it with a VB forum.

[Typoh]

Thats not impossible for a VB to code.
My freind, Matt, (Yiad/Hollywood) He cooded a christmas VIP like that for his, It was like this,
Christmas VIP

[kk.]

yeh ive seen VB forums with names like that for christmas chri etc

[joshuar]

There is a way to code it in vBulletin, however I have no idea how to do that :P

Just want to put it out there that it is only February....

Josh always has to come and spoil the spirit :P

Let's be honest, who else would do it if I didn't? ;)

If somebody knows how to do it could they PM me? I would be intrested in knowing myself, and then if it's not too hard i'll talk to ---MAD--- about it maybe nearer the time.

The world cup VIP in 06 was WC: NAME, surely it works along the same principles?

Hmmm, that's true. Habbox has had multiple colours in their VIP before...

As it's only February it gives you enough time to find out how :D

That's different. For that you would put the code for yellow text, then WC:- and then the code for red. It's quite easy to do that or add an image before and/or after.

I have no idea how to make it like this halloween example though haha.

Quite a good idea.

Quite a good idea.Surely it would follow the same principle? This would be a good idea, I think it would attract more people into buying VIP. :)

[GommeInc]

It would, except you would have it recurring. Rather than just two colours appearing once, they appear however many times it would in a number of letters.

Maybe.

For WC: the code would be:
<b><font color="gold">WC:<font color=''red''>
with
</font></font></b>
in the next box. It may be slightly wrong but you get the point. To make it multicoloured you would somehow have to put lots of <font> codes in. However I don't know how you would do it unless personally to every member who bought it you edited the name to be multicoloured rather than in usergroup manager.

[Slowpoke]

Nice idea but it looks quite messy..

[Curry-Man]

I'm Hot, I'm Spicy, I Taste Great and I'm glad someone likes my idea =D

[GoldenMerc]

Its impossible unfortually people with big names would end up only having the first few letters like theat even still i woulnt know :[

[Wootzeh]

It's February and you're talking about halloween? -.-

$x = 0;
while($x < strlen($this->post['username']) AND $this->post['usergroupid'] == 6)
{
$_color = ($_color == "red") ? "black" : "red";
$post['musername'] .= "<span style='color:".$_color."'>".$this->post['username'][$x]."</span>";
$x++;
} Add a new plugin using hook location "postbit_display_start" with the code I posted.


change black and red only. And usergroup ID to the VIP usergroup. such as 35.

There, the smart man talks.
Hah! told you tere was.

[today]

that only does the postbit, you need to edit the "display" for it to display other areas on the forum ;)

But you can do it. =] i think i should get a well big thanks.

*gives big thanks*

Happy? :) This idea sounds good, I hope it goes through.

If joshuar needs any help with this i'll help :)

Thats if it gets "accepted"

Totally different. We only needed to code the prefix. We can't add multiple codes for the actual name.

{
$_color = ($_color == "red") ? "black" : "red";

Sorry, I'm a silly. I meant no way to do it with the current tools. That involves editing the template. Which is one of the things we hate doing, due to possible messups. Also, whenever a new version comes out we might have to recode it. This creates a problem :P

Yeah you'd have to edit all over the place. But indeed well done :)

[Shrlurp]

good idea,

i want dis to go forward pls x

Actually its much like the arcade, its the "hooks" you edit under the plugins navbar, thus making it very easy to edit actually i dont even think you need to edit when upgrading at all. :eusa_whis

And im sure it wouldnt take five minutes, test it on HXW! or the "tester forum" mad has hidden somewhere... :eusa_whisA few minutes of editing to extra money, it weights out..

K I need to stop talking now and leave the VB talk to the techies. I only know the little bits that I do that I picked up while working here. Josh and Jin would know better than I how hard it would be.

[Curry-Man]

Yes, Hollywood gets a thanks for coding, and I get a thanks for the VIP image I posted.

And Wootzeh gets a swift kick for once again pointing out it's only Feb. WE KNOW.

I saw the VIP Colours question thread and noticed there's no Halloween. Got a problem?

[GhostFace-]

good idea but it may take a while to code that.
