Hey Prime, no, what I meant was that I want to choose a single member, a very important person on the board, tell the UBB to single him/her out, and have his/her name show up in a different color when he/she posts. The "VIP_NAME" waas just a variable name filler... I should be able to put any user's name in there.

There's no substitution, rather a simple if block that tests whether or not it is that user posting. I know how to set up the if statement, but what I don't know is what variable name to use to call the user's name field in the profile. I guess it could also be done by checking their member number.

Take for example, this thread . Scroll down to the fourth reply and you'll see that I changed the name for the VIP, named "matty", to blue. This was done in 6.1.x using the code above in my original post. I've tried it with 6.4 and it doesn't work. frown
