[Forum] Disable Rank Icons for certain Usergroups?

[Superorb]

I'd like to disable user ranks for certain usergroups (admin, forum bot, etc) but I can only find a way to show ranks for ALL groups or only 1 group. There's no way to pick and choose which groups the ranks apply to. If this isn't built in is there a way I can add an IF conditional in the templates to hide it for certain usergroups? I couldn't find a plugin for a more granular ranks manager on the .org site either.

If you want an IF statement that only applies to certain usergroups you could use:

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, 1, 2, 3, 4)"></vb:if>

where in the example only usergroups 1,2,3, and 4 would see what is inside the IF conditional.

Thanks, but I think I needed to be more specific. I'd like the user ranks for people in certain usergroups to not display anywhere on the site. I think what you posted would hide all ranks from all users depending on the logged in user's usergroup. Am I making sense? It makes sense in my head

vBulletin 4 doesnt support such an option and you may ask at www.vbulletin.org for such a modification as this could not be done that easy.

Ok, I'll ask over at vb.org. I can't believe this has never been asked before. Surely I'm not the first person that wanted to disable ranks for certain users/usergroups.

It's possible for usergroups but nnot for users in a specific usergroup. But users can hide their rankings themself.

I'm interested in both methods. Please explain, as I have been unsuccessful myself. I can go both routes but I don't know how.
