Has anyone set up a hack where you can show more icons next to people's names (like the Admin and Moderator icons)? If so, can you share the code? If not, can someone point me to the file that contains the code where this is assembled?

Yeah, I'm a little too lazy to look at the code before asking []https://www.ubbdev.com/threads/php/images/icons/wink.gif[/]

do you want to create different icons for mod and admin icons? or do you want to create more user status's, like vip or something? if you wanted to create a new user status you would need to edit three files, adduser.php, showflat/threaded.php. adduser is where the userstatus gets inserted into the db. that looks like this: if ($user['U_Status'] == "Administrator") { $UserStatus = "A"; } elseif ($user['U_Status'] == "Moderator") { $UserStatus = "M"; } you can add after that: elseif ($user['U_Status'] == "VIP") { $UserStatus = "V"; } then in showflat/threaded find: // --------------------------------------------------------- // We need to know if this was made by an admin or moderator $UserStatus = ""; if ($PostStatus == "A") { $UserStatus = "<img src="$config[images]/adm.gif" alt="$lang[USER_ADMIN]" border=0>"; } elseif ($PostStatus == "M") { $UserStatus = "<img src="$config[images]/mod.gif" alt="$lang[USER_MOD]" border=0>"; } then add: elseif ($PostStatus == "V") { $UserStatus = "<img src="$config[images]/vip.gif" alt="V.I.P." border=0>"; } and create a vip image. bam.

Thanks Poil []https://www.ubbdev.com/threads/php/images/icons/smile.gif[/]

That was exactly what I was looking for, and to answer your question, the reason is to show a VIP status.
