MyBB Community Forums

Create a simple MyBB usergroup legend.
In forums, a usergroup legend shows the different styled groups on the forum index so everyone knows who’s in what usergroup. In MyBB, many use a plugin for this as the forum software does not have a MyBB usergroup legend feature included, however adding one is easy to do and can be done without any MyBB plugins. Here’s a short tutorial on how you can create your own customizable MyBB usergroup legend code on your forum index.

1. Go to Admin CP > Templates & Style > Templates > (your default template) > Index Page Templates > index_boardstats and find:

{$whosonline}
Add this below it:

<tr>
<td class="tcat"><span class="smalltext"><strong>Usergroup Legend</strong></span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow1"><span class="smalltext">ADD YOUR USERGROUPS HERE</span></td>
</tr>
2. Now go to Users & Groups > Groups > (choose any group you have, but in this tutorial I’m choosing Administrators) and under “Username Style”, copy everything there.

3. Go back to the index_boardstats template and replace the “ADD YOUR USERGROUPS HERE” text in the MyBB usergroup legend code with your copied Username Style, replace “{username}” with the name of the user group (in this case it would be Administrators).

4. Repeat with any other usergroups you want to add to the MyBB usergroup legend, add a comma and space (, ) after each one. When finished, save the template.

The result?



The forum index now shows a clean MyBB usergroup legend that can easily be rearranged to how you want it. Add, move and remove any groups from the usergroup legend in index_boardstats. You shouldn’t have to do this often as most forums have a stable set of usergroups.

Where do you want it to be?

Also on the portal (which acts like my sites's homepage).

you can put it under the online bit of the portal

You can use View Groups by Pirata Nervo

Even you can add what you want not only userlegend
Example you want to add a forum signature you will do
<tr>
<td class="tcat"><span class="smalltext"><strong>Forum Signature</strong></span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow1"><span class="smalltext"><img src="[your froum signature link img]</span></td>
</tr>

even you want to add videos or music

Thank you very much for this, man!
