A sort of signature in your post......

YaBB SE Version: 1.5.5

Problem Description:
Hi! On my forun I always put the following at the end of my posts:

Code Select Expand

Gamer's Place
[url]www.gamers-place.co.uk[/url]

Is there anyway I can make it so that, that piece of code altomatically comes up directly under my posts? And I know about signatures they don't work correctly!
 Thanks.

Why don't signatures work correctly?

I didn't mean it in that sense. What I mean is that if I use a signature to do this then the text wouldn't be right by the post it'd be about 6 lines down with a horizontal rule seperating it. I'm just wondering if you can automatically modify a certain file so that you can do what I want?

If you're prepared to hardcode your 'sort of signature' into the board:

Search Display.php for:

Code Select Expand

                                <hr width="100%" size="1" class="windowbg3" />
                                ' . $message . '

And replace with:

Code Select Expand

                                 <hr width="100%" size="1" class="windowbg3" />
                                 ' . $message;

                                 if ($muserID == 'your id')
                                 {
                                    echo '<p>Gamer\'s Place<br /><a href="http://www.gamers-place.co.uk/" target="_blank">www.gamers-place.co.uk</a></p>';
                                 }

                                 echo '

Where 'your id' is your id (obviously!).

NB Earlier post deleted because I never should have posted code without code tags.

PS I know this affects your whole site, but should that be Gamer's singular or Gamers' plural?

Thanks! And I know this is a stupid question but by ID does that mean display name or username? (Sorry I'm a newbie!:-))

Neither!

It's the same as your ID_MEMBER, which is probably '1' if it's your board, but you can check that easily if you have phpMyAdmin.

Awesome that works! Thanks soooo much for all your help! YaBB SE is much better than my old forum provider!
