html usergroup color markup in channel view ?

[USC]

after using glenn's code

Code:
{vb:rawphrase by_x, {vb:var profileUrl}, {vb:raw forum.lastcontent.authorname}}
with:

Code:
{vb:data lastUserInfo, user, fetchProfileInfo, {vb:raw forum.lastcontent.userid}}
{vb:rawphrase by_x, {vb:var profileUrl}, {vb:raw lastUserInfo.musername}}
There are 2 instances of that line that you have to change. Note that you may have to re-apply the changes whenever you upgrade.

htmal color mark up worked perfectly on forum page however i doesnt work on channel view ..any help please ? please see the attachments

I am not familiar with Glenn's code change. You would have to inspect the code and apply the same changes to the template(s) controlling that additional area.

You can turn on Template Name in Comments under Settings -> Options -> Product/Hook System. This will output the template name in the generated HTML. Viewing the source code will allow you to find the specific template(s) to edit.

We apparently currently only set the forum status when there are new posts.
TODO: Also set the status for other things, such as 'closed' (VBV-9804) (Icons already available)

According to the code that you just posted, it should already utilize the HTML Markup for usernames.

{vb:rawphrase by_x, {vb:var profileUrl}, {vb:raw lastUserInfo.musername}}

lastUserInfo.musername should include the markup. lastUserinfo.username would be the plain name.

it does utilize in forum home but not in channel/thread view ..any clue where to put that code ?

[Wayne Luke]

No. I don't have any clue on where to put that code. There are only two instances of username in the code you provided and both already use the musername markup. Either the display is actually using a different template or the markup is affected by a bug that prevents it from showing in your version of vBulletin.
