since you say you barly clean out your message box, So I can't really ask you this there: Whats with, and can you explain the colored names of ppl. Like I see you with green, and cesque with brown(?)? what's up with it, what it signal?
-
Well, green is for moderators, brown would be those in "The Brotherhood", and black is normal users. I'd imagine there is red for admin as well, but apparently that doesn't work if your also considered a moderator...
Your next question would probably be "What is the Brotherhood". Really it's nothing at all. They're just normal users. I did give them one advantage over normal users...but I forget what it was...nothing significant. They probably don't even notice. The Brotherhood consists of Cesque, Dark Elite, and Haraldur. It basically goes back to when Cesque said something about them being brothers...or the brotherhood...or something, and I decided to add a usergroup called The Brotherhood, and add them to it. Matt72186 changed their usercolor to brown.
On another note...this is my 420th post...

Ok, wow, your spychic, anyway, how do you add members to a user group? I have the same forum, but can't figure it out, well, I guess that shows how smart I am Wink.

Brothers - Dark Elite
Brotherhood - Meh B)
Adventage? Lol. Kewl. Must... find... out... what...
Anyway, where do these names appear colored? I only see changes in the lower bar telling what users were active in few past minutes (as far as I remember)... Names near posts display in black for me. I use default skin...
Hmm, dunno.
-
That's very odd. Even my name appears in green for me. Only regular users should appear black.
Word2 -
1. Go to AdminCP
2. Click on the "Users and Groups" menu to expand it
3. Click on "Manage User Groups"
It's pretty simple...not sure why you couldn't find it. I remember one time you asked how to make forums that redirect somewhere too (like the chat link on these forums). This is pretty easy as well.
1. Go to AdminCP
2. Click on "Forum Control" to expand the menu
3. Click "New Forum"
4. The fourth section of settings is called "Forum Redirect Options" That's where you want to be. Type in the URL to redirect to, and click the "Yes" button under "Switch on URL redirect".
If none of the above options appear in your AdminCP, you may have an old version of the Invision PowerBoard forums. MS's version is 1.3.
-
Im not sure of what version I have, i think its newer, i have only had it 3 months, and I make a group, but I can't see where to add members to it....
Also, Thatnks alot for the Redirect url thing Smile.
-
Our forums were updated...maybe a month ago. The current version in the AdminCP says it's up to date.
-
hmm...i don't see colored names. Everyone's the same, except for the bar under the avatar.
-
We're talking about the list of users that are reading the forum/topic, at the bottom of the screen. it lists anyone that's read the topic in the last...15 minutes I think. That way you have a good idea who's on at the same time you are.
-
I don't get any funky colours on my name....I wish I had Red because red is my favorite colour! Very Happy
-
You should have one, you have a forum after all, and I assume you are a moderator there.
-
Why yes....It should...I have my little DMDGames section(BTW I deceided to try and make my own fourms but then I decieded it was to hard and stuff so I just quit, I'm stickin' with the MS one because it's cool...n' fun! And I have an RP on it!)
Yeah but I don't want be joined into a group yet, I want to be the first one to find a rank higher then posting freak! I dought there is...but that may change...
Spyder make a new rank after Posting freak called....Forum Slave or Posting Slave or Mystic Software Slave...or you can make it so after a couple of thosand posts you loose the posting and your just....a freak! Laughing
-
There already is one Dude Man. It is called "Oldbie" and it is at 2000 posts. Why are you so obsessed by this?
-
Uhhh.............*runs away imbarest*
-
Green is Admin, Red is Moderator, Brown is "The Brotherhood", and black consists of normal users. 'tis that simple.

-

hey, just popping in for a minute...at five in the morning... Very Happy ...checking in on whats going on, before i go caving with my 7th grade class Razz
hmm...Khin, you cant see the names diferent colors at all?...wierd...
Spyder, do you mean to get a camera and take a pic of MJH becuase he rarly appears? Laughing
-
I can't see name colors, either.
Hmm, my grandfather is color blind (daltonism), but I doubt I inherited it in genes. Or maybe? But I can tell what is red and what is green, at least.
-
You are looking at the bottom of the page right? We're not talking about the usernames next to the posts, were talking about where it says people are currently on.
-
Well, okay, then.
Hmm, I doubt much people look there anyway... Or maybe? Maybe, if possible, you should add some color to all names next to posts, and when a member of Brotherhood posts, make his post flash red and in random pieces of screen, put a text saying "BOW DOWN IT'S THE BROTHERHOOD MEMBER!!!".
Ignore the above. Oh well.
-
Hehehe....i've been making more and more frequent appearances than ye may have seen.
-
Ye but happy to see MJH here at ye fourm! Very Happy Laughing
