Show signatures of some user groups to guests

[HenrikHansen]

Show signatures of some user groups to guests, possible?

Fx, normal users: signatures not shown to guests
premium users: signatures shown to guests

 

[snoopy5]

that would be an interesting feature...

Hmm, it would be interesting.

Ultimately, what would the benefit be?

Is this so links in their signatures would be followed by search engines? If so I have a solution for that.

Could be used for promoting premium usergroups with postings of moderators, but visible only to non-premium usergroups. A kind of adsense for guests

This should do it:

Admin CP -> Appearance -> Templates -> message

Add the red code:

		<xen:if is="{$visitor.content_show_signature} && {$message.signature}">
		<xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id} OR {xen:helper ismemberof, $message, 4}">
			<div class="baseHtml signature ugc{xen:if $message.isIgnored, ' ignored'}"><aside>{xen:raw $message.signatureHtml}</aside></div>
		</xen:if>
		</xen:if>

You need to specify the group_id of the privileged group.

Cool. I will try that one... Thanks
		<xen:if is="{$visitor.content_show_signature} && {$message.signature}">

			<div class="baseHtml signature ugc{xen:if $message.isIgnored, ' ignored'}"><aside>{xen:raw $message.signatureHtml}</aside></div>
		</xen:if>

cool, I will try that one later... Thanks

Chris, the benefit would be to make some benefits to premium users, fx above 100 posts, to make their signature shown,
even if makes some SEO noise. I guess that would be smaller that if signature is shown for all.

I'm still in the process of learning XF conditionals... So thanks for this share Jake
Quick question - can this conditonal be 'expanded' to include more than one usergroup like:

<xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id} OR {xen:helper ismemberof, $message, 3,4,5}">

Thanks,

J.

That's correct.

I have a question about showing signatures of certain usergroups to guests. Will the extra noise of some signatures in the thread_view page be detrimental to our search engine rankings?
