THIS ADD-ON IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE AND IS NOT SUPPORTED

This add-on makes the text portion of postbits collapsable and allows the selection and arranging of what profile fields will be displayed in postbits.


Features
  • Select which profile fields to display in postbits.
  • Select which standard vB fields to display in postbits.
  • Set the order that the fields will be displayed in.
  • Detects new profile fields and adds them to the postbit order display for selection.
  • Detects deleted profile fields and removes them from the postbit order display.
  • Does not add any database queries to the vB frontend.
  • Adds Local Date and Local Time options to the available fields.
  • Detects and adds Photopost Gallery option to the available fields.
  • Does not affect mods that add to the proper postbit hooks, but those items can not have their order changed.
  • Support for other mods to add their postbits to this add-on so the order they are displayed in can be changed.
  • After editing a post or posting a quick reply, the entire postbit for that post is shown to the member that edited/posted the post.


NOTE: This add-on contains the Local Date/Time code by the late Rob Hindal (Boofo). If a large number of people think this should be removed from this mod I will remove it.

This add-on will not work with any mod that forces the use of the standard vB postbit_legacy template, or with any mod that requires manual editing of the postbit templates.

Known Mods that do this:
  1. [DBTech] Advanced Post Thanks Like v3.0.3 [Lite] (Due to double Blog This Post link)
  2. Info box on Postbit (may work with edits to that mod)
  3. Country Flags - Postbit & Postbit_Legacy. vB 4.0.x (Inc GO : (Due to manual edits)

A live demo of this can be seen on my site: http://snogssite.com

If you want to use a different graphic for the expand/collapse button in postbits change these buttons:
