Anyone have any idea if it's possible to set / over ride a users display name color if they are logging on from a specific I.P.?

I have folks who rotate through a help desk position and I'd like their names to show up differently from normal users while they are acting in this capacity. Luckily we sitck them in a dark closet that only has on 'puter so I know the I.P. won't change.

You can make a small change in the ubbt.inc.php file adding a new function which will read the IP address of the user (using the find_environmental function) and if it matches the criteria you set to output the relevant name using a specific color. Following that you use that function anywhere you want, mainly showflat.php and showthreaded.php.
