User Postbit Choice
Mod Version: 2.0.1, by MarkFL

This product is the result of a request posted by Elixar here:

Ability to switch postbit style


This product allows you to give your users a choice between using the classic postbit (userinfo above the post content) or the postbit legacy (userinfo to the left of post content) from within the general settings of their UserCP.

Upon installation, a custom profile field is added to allow users to make their choice. This field defaults to using the forum default as you have set in your AdminCP options.



In the product settings, you may enable/disable the product, and you may select usergroups whose members have access to the actions of this product. If the product is disabled, or if a user is not in one of the selected usergroups, then the custom profile field will simply inform the user that this option has been disabled.




Version 2.0.1:

• Fixed issue of disabled message appearing on options other than the postibt choice option.

Tested and working on VB 4.2.x and may work on all 4.x versions of vBulletin.
