At the moment, the post cell goes something like

USERNAME
VIEWREG

AVATAR

RANKING


The thing is, I don't want VIEWREG Admin to also be RANKING Newbie. Is it possible to create static ranking in

/* Custom ranks function */
//1-300 - newbie
//300-600 - advanced
//600-1000 - prof.
//1000-1500 - writing for living
//1500+ - writer forever

function parseUserInfo_num_posts($val){
if($GLOBALS['action']=='userinfo') return $val-$GLOBALS['row'][10];
else{
if($val>=1 and $val<=300) $rank='newbie';
elseif($val>300 and $val<=600) $rank='advanced';
elseif($val>600 and $val<=1000) $rank='prof.';
elseif($val>1000 and $val<=1500) $rank='writing for living';
elseif($val>1500) $rank='writer forever';
else $rank='';
return '<span class=txtSm>'.$rank.'</span>';
}
}


??

if($val>=1 and $val<=300 and $GLOBALS['poster_id']!=1) $rank='newbie';

something like that...

OR, for eliminating this thing for admin at all:

function parseUserInfo_num_posts($val){
if($GLOBALS['action']=='userinfo') return $val-$GLOBALS['row'][10];
elseif($GLOBALS['poster_id']!=1){
if($val>=1 and $val<=300) $rank='newbie';
elseif($val>300 and $val<=600) $rank='advanced';
elseif($val>600 and $val<=1000) $rank='prof.';
elseif($val>1000 and $val<=1500) $rank='writing for living';
elseif($val>1500) $rank='writer forever';
else $rank='';
return '<span class=txtSm>'.$rank.'</span>';
}
}

I also had this problem, but it was revolving around custom titles. Is it possible not to have this show for anyone with a custom title? I played with it a bit but couldn't figure out a easy check to see if a userid has a custom title.

If you mean $userRanks, than it will be something like...

function parseUserInfo_num_posts($val){
if($GLOBALS['action']=='userinfo') return $val-$GLOBALS['row'][10];
elseif($GLOBALS['cols'][0]!=1 and !isset($GLOBALS['userRanks'][$GLOBALS['cols'][0]])){
if($val>=1 and $val<=300) $rank='newbie';
elseif($val>300 and $val<=600) $rank='advanced';
elseif($val>600 and $val<=1000) $rank='prof.';
elseif($val>1000 and $val<=1500) $rank='writing for living';
elseif($val>1500) $rank='writer forever';
else $rank='';
return '<span class=txtSm>'.$rank.'</span>';
}
}

this didn't work, is $userRanks the one set in bb_specials ?

with this code, nothing showed on all titles.

Well, don't know what the reason is, but it works on my side! Don't forget to insert {$userInfo_num_posts[$poster_id]} as it's mentioned in README for this solution.

weird, it worked last night. i didnt change anything and now it doesn't work anymore. goes back to the custom ranks determined by post, instead of a statice one defined with the code above...

anyone know why that happened?

hmm, it didn't work after all.

i tried using the code you posted, Paul. But it didn't work for me. Is there anything else I can try? How can I make exceptions in bb_plugins for people who have ranks set up in $userRanks from bb_specials?

Unfortunatelly, I don't know what you are doing wrong and where to fix the error. We're investigating such kind of problems only for a fee.

The code shown is exactly the same on minibb test forums. For example, if you check this thread:

http://minibb.org/minibb-test.php?action=vthread&forum=2& topic=429

you will see that Moderator has a 'newbie' tag (as he has less than 300 posts), but tester has no custom tag, but custom ranking "Test Account" is written in instead. As it is defined in bb_specials.php:

$userRanks=array(75=>'Test Account');
