Simple modification that checks if a user has a Custom Title defined. If they do, then the Custom Title replaces the post based Title. (thanks to the pishmeister, who no one knows yet for this)

If they don't have a Custom Title, then the post based Title will be displayed.

Also does a small tweak to not include extra
when the Rating system is turned off or the user doesn't have a rating. Right now it slams in a
regardless. This saves some vertical space.

Ok.. here goes.

Open: /templates/default/post_side.tpl

Find:
Code
{if $postrow[post].CustomTitle}
{$postrow[post].CustomTitle}
<br />
{/if}
{$postrow[post].Title}
<br />
{$postrow[post].Rating}
<br />
Replace with:
Code
{if $postrow[post].CustomTitle}
{$postrow[post].CustomTitle}
{else}
{$postrow[post].Title}
{/if}
<br />
{if $postrow[post].Rating}
{$postrow[post].Rating}
<br />
{/if}
done!

Open: /templates/default/post_top.tpl

Find:
Code
<span class="small">
{if $postrow[post].CustomTitle}
{$postrow[post].CustomTitle}
<br />
{/if}
{$postrow[post].Title}
</span>
Replace with:
Code
<span class="small">
{if $postrow[post].CustomTitle}
{$postrow[post].CustomTitle}
{else}
{$postrow[post].Title}
{/if}
</span>
Done!

Open: /templates/default/post_comments.tpl

Find:
Code
{if $postrow[post].CustomTitle}
{$postrow[post].CustomTitle}
<br />
{/if}
{$postrow[post].Title}
<br />
{$postrow[post].Rating}
<br />
Replace with:
Code
{if $postrow[post].CustomTitle}
{$postrow[post].CustomTitle}
{else}
{$postrow[post].Title}
{/if}
<br />
{if $postrow[post].Rating}
{$postrow[post].Rating}
<br />
{/if}
Done!

if you want to go further and also color the title or custom title according to the username's color, you can do the following.

open: /scripts/showflat.inc.php

find:
PHP Code
	 $postrow[$i]['Title']	= $Title;
		$postrow[$i]['CustomTitle'] = $CustomTitle;
add above:
PHP Code
	 // SD - Mod (color, based upon user color or admin/mod color
		if ($Color) {
			$Title = "<span style="color:$Color;">$Title</span>";
			if ($CustomTitle) {
				$CustomTitle = "<span style="color:$Color;">$CustomTitle</span>";
			}
		}

		if (($PostStatus == "Administrator") && (!$Color)) {
			$Title = "<span class="adminname">$Title</span>";
			if ($CustomTitle) {
				$CustomTitle = "<span class="adminname">$CustomTitle</span>";
			}
		}
		elseif (($PostStatus == "Moderator") && (!$Color)) {
			$Title = "<span class="modname">$Title</span>";
			if ($CustomTitle) {
				$CustomTitle = "<span class="modname">$CustomTitle</span>";
			}
		}

Done!

Pfff, just moved all custom titles we had in our post title fields that were imported over from 6.5.x. Removed the hacks that allowed me to edit the post title instead of the custom title.

/scripts/online.inc.php

find:

Code

		if ($CustomTitle) {
			$Title = "$CustomTitle<br />$Title";
		}

replace with:

Code

		if ($CustomTitle) {
			$Title = $CustomTitle;
		}

/scripts/showprofile.inc.php

find:

Code

	$smarty_data = array(
		"profileuser" => $profileuser,
		"Fakeemail" => $Fakeemail,
		"Picture" => $Picture,
		"width" => $width,
		"height" => $height,
		"User" => $User,
		"Title" => "$Title<br />  $CustomTitle",

replace with:

Code

	if ($CustomTitle) { $title=$CustomTitle; };
	$smarty_data = array(
		"profileuser" => $profileuser,
		"Fakeemail" => $Fakeemail,
		"Picture" => $Picture,
		"width" => $width,
		"height" => $height,
		"User" => $User,

That one already looks ok. It uses the post_side and post_top templates if I'm correct.

Don't worry, just concentrate on the naked chat suggestions I made smile

Okay just want to say Thanks guys.

This mod by SirDude and blaaskaak works just fine on my site. I'm happy with it.

The issue appears to be that if you want BOTH Default and Custom titles to show then this mod won't work for you. For me I just want the one Default to show and it works great.

Currently the code in 7.2.2 is less than adequate for me and I had to keep manually updating the database each day to fix it.

Doing these fixes as shown by SirDude and blaaskaak will restore it back to they way it used to work in 6.x (at least as I recall it working)

Thanks again guys rockon

Looks good allen, but I could have sworn someone else posted this before...

BTW, this will likely throw out "undefined index" errors, you should read up on isset

Merged here... you might consider collecting the pieces in the topic and combining for a text file instruction, would help those trying to install it once wink
