how to use postbit_legacy only in one style

[StarBuG]

Hi

Is there another way other then replace postbit with postbit_legacy content to show postbit_legacy on one style only?

The vb setting for legacy is global and no option.

please help

Thx

You could copy the content of postbit_legacy into the postbit template for that style.

Yes but besides that is there another way?

Not that I now of, sorry Maybe someone else has an alternative suggestion.

You could write an if statement based on StyleID inside the postbit. You would still have to copy the code in from the postbit_legacy, however the whole thing would be wrapped in an if/else statement.

I have HEAVILY modded code so I can't post exactly, but here is an idea of what your postbit would look like:

IF styleid=x (x being the style you want to show legacy)
LEGACY CODE
Else
non-legacy code
/IF

Wouldn't style dependend postbit a new feature for vB 3.7?

Inside style settings an option to chose between postbit and postbit_legacy?

You mean globally or per forum? There's a plug-in that works as a atyle switcher between postbit & postbit legacy. You then can use conditionals to customize it to your needs.
