remove profile link in "Last Post by" column

[Merlin3649]

hi, I've extensively searched through the forums trying to find an answer to this, so if i has already been asked a lot then I apologize for the redundancy.

Anyway, I would like to disable the link to a user's profile field that is contained within their name on the "Last Post by" column. I'd like to do this for both the forum display and the thread display, but I assume one change will do both. I disabled the link for the thread starter in the threadbit template, so I know it's doable, but any direction would be most welcome!

Thanks.

Just the link, not the name, right?

For the forum listings go to your:

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Forum Home Templates -> forumhome_lastpostby

Remove the red code:

<if condition="$show['lastpostinfo']">
<div class="smallfont" align="$stylevar[left]">
	<div style="clear:both">
		<if condition="$show['icon']"><img class="inlineimg" src="$icon[iconpath]" alt="$icon[title]" border="0" /></if>
		<a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]goto=newpost&amp;t=$lastpostinfo[lastthreadid]" title="<phrase 1="$lastpostinfo[lastthread]">$vbphrase[go_first_unread_in_thread_x]</phrase>"><strong>$lastpostinfo[trimthread]</strong></a>
	</div>
	<div<if condition="is_browser('ie', 6)"> style="float:$stylevar[left]"</if>>
		[color=red]<phrase 1="member.php?$session[sessionurl]find=lastposter&amp;f=$lastpostinfo[forumid]" 2="[/color]$lastpostinfo[lastposter][color=red]">$vbphrase[by_x]</phrase>[/color]
	</div>
	<div align="$stylevar[right]">
		$lastpostinfo[lastpostdate] <if condition="!$show['detailedtime']"><span class="time">$lastpostinfo[lastposttime]</span></if>

For the thread listing go to your:

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Threadbit Templates -> threadbit

Remove the red code:

	<td class="alt2" title="<phrase 1="$thread[replycount]" 2="$thread[views]">$vbphrase[replies_x_views_y]</phrase>">
		<div class="smallfont" style="text-align:$stylevar[right]; white-space:nowrap">
			$thread[lastpostdate] <if condition="!$show['detailedtime']"><span class="time">$thread[lastposttime]</span></if><br />
			[color=red]<phrase 1="member.php?find=lastposter&amp;t=$thread[threadid]" 2="[/color]$thread[lastposter][color=red]">$vbphrase[by_x]</phrase>[/color]  <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]goto=lastpost&amp;t=$thread[threadid]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/lastpost.gif" alt="$vbphrase[go_to_last_post]" border="0" /></a>
		</div>
	</td>
