I realize 6.3 has a place in each profile to add a custom title, however, thats alot of work to keep track if you use alot of them and change them frequently as I do. It needs to be all on one page so you can quickly scan all the titles and make changes. Im wondering if the previous custom title/ranks will be somehow brought back into this.

On my test board, I just tried to install the JCT hack, and it worked--after I tweaked one hack in the ubb_lib_posting.cgi file (second step) with the Multihack file I have.
Since I had the hack installed before, all I did was upload the four files I modified:
cp.cgi
ubb_lib_posting.cgi
cp_common.pl
public_topic_page.pl

Per a PM from Zildjin, decided to reply on this instead of in the PM, quote:
Hello,
I saw your post in the URL below and I have the same problem. I need to be able to change large quantities of title's quickly and easily.
Have you found a hack for this for 6.3 ?
Jimbos custom rank/titles from 6.2 with some modifications works with 6.3. I dont make hacks so I dont exactly have a nice text file on porting it. It just works for me now, but it can be done.
I also noticed you have 0 posts. Why cant you reply to public messages with these questions?

I just added a Custom title under the user title and Member can user define it. Similar to that but add $user_profile[16] undrr $user_status and make the field.

I am using XPerT.x's hack, but I want to limit the ability to have custom titles displayed to only members who have access to forum #6. I've tried changing:
if ($user_title ne "") {
to:
if (($user_title ne "") && ($user_permissions->has_permission("forum", "view", 6))) {
But that had no effect, people that were not members of Forum #6 still have their custom titles displayed in their posts.
I don't care if all members can add their custom titles in their profiles, but I only want the custom titles of members of forum #6 to be displayed when viewing posts.
I'm very new to hacking, so a little help would be appreciated, thanks.

Is your Forum 6 a "Team Meeting" of some sort, which only Mods and Admins are allowed to access? If so, try using:
if (($user_profile eq 'Moderator') || ($user_profile eq 'Administrator')) {
I'm also a newbie when it comes to hacking, so please make sure to back up public_topic_page.pl before editing it. :

Nope, they are regular members, not mods or admins.
Forum 6 is a private forum, we also have public forums and public only members and I don't want them to be able change their own titles.

Um.. no. This is how it should go.
if(($user_profile[8] eq 'Moderator') || ($user_profile[8] eq 'Administrator')) {
The 8th place is where the status lies 
And Zildjin, try this,
if (($user_title ne "") && ($in{f} eq '6')) {

I spoke too soon, this did not work. This bit of code only allows custom titles to be seen in forum 6.
Forum 6 is a private forum and I want the users of that forum only to have their custom titles shown. I want their titles shown in all of the forums though, not just in forum 6.
Any ideas anyone?

Ok I tried:
if (($user_title ne "") && ($user_profile[4] =~ m/6/)) {
Since the 4th place is the forum permission line.
This didn't work, but I am unsure how to do a match. The 4th place typically can look like this:
Write&10,6,12,9,8
What is the proper syntax to search for the '6'?

Ok, after much messing around, I got it to work. It's ugly, but it works fine. if (($user_title ne "") && (($user_profile[8] eq 'Moderator') || ($user_profile[8] eq 'Administrator') || ((index($user_profile[4],6) > 0)))) { This ensures all mods, admins and members of forum 6 have their user definable custom title's displayed in all their posts. Good thing I don't have forum 16 or 26 or 36, etc.
