Multiple Usergroups

[lazer]

Many of the users of my forum are members of more than one usergroup and have "rank" (hate that word) badges to show this in postbit.

How does XF handle the display of multiple usergroups/ranks in postbit?

Only one user title can be displayed in the member block.

This can be based on usergroup, trophy count or a custom title.

If you want to display more than one title then that should be possible with template/code edits.

Ok, then that's on my "want list"

Thx.

Ranks/badges based on usergroup membership are not the same as the user title though. In vB I used this for the user ranks/badges:

<if condition="is_member_of($post,6)">
<img src="images/groups/admin.gif" width="128" height="25" border="0" alt="Administrator" class="grouptag" />
</if>

I assume XF has the possibility for something similar

the only thing that would be different is the if condition if anything..

Indeed, that's what I meant.

What I have done in Alpha7 is add a new usergroup, called "super users" and made a little cape icon.
Then in the CSS part for the name mark up I have added a background image and left padding of 16px.
Users in this group now show with a cape icon when their account is updated to super user.

Just a thought as to how this could be approached

Looks professional. The only problem: long usernames get overlapped.
