I'm trying to change the colour of someones username depending on their usergroup.

I found this:

PHP Code:

$this->post['usertitle'] =& $this->registry->usergroupcache["0"]['usertitle']; 


I would like to make a switch statement like:

PHP Code:

switch($post['usertitle'])
        {
            case "Member"; $colour = "#fff"; $alt = "Regular Member"; break;
        } 


Hope that makes sense. Not sure where to put the switch statement though... Very new to VBulletin and haven't had enough time to properly look through all of the code.

Any help would be greatly appreciated . Thanks

This is a default option for vBulletin usergroups.

If you look in each usergoups settings you will see that the fourth setting from the top has this.

Username HTML Markup (Specify an opening and closing HTML tag with which to display the names of users in this group. This applies to names that appear on Logged-in Users, Who's Online, Users Browsing Forum, Users Browsing Thread, Posts, Member List etc.)

Goto:
admincp>>usergroups>>usergroupsmanager>>Username HTML Markup

put this:

PHP Code:

<span style="font-weight: bold; color: #YOURCOLOR;"> 


in the first box and this:

PHP Code:

</span> 


in the second!
Dont forget to change your color!

Thank you, that works, but only for primary members of the moderator group. How to highlisgh all moderators (primary and additional members of moderators group)?

Set the moderator group to override primary groups username settings.

no ... should be the same.
goto admincp >>> usergroup >>> usergroup manager >>>

then edit the desired user group. the fourth line down should look like this ... click for larger image ...

then enter the desired code like this in the first box, red in this example ...

<span style="color: red;">

and this in the second

</span>
