How to modify plugin variable like username with my custom plugin ?!
I'm trying to create plugin to add icon next username in each place in forum but I can't know how to make it edit username in Shoutbox or TopStats plugin for example

I saw it in many forums :



this the hook :

$plugins->add_hook("global_start", "IconInTop");

and my function :

function IconInTop()
{
    global $db, $mybb, $plugins, $templatelist, $topStats;

    

        $tpl['profilelink'] = "BlaBla";
    
    
    
    return $tpl['profilelink'];
}

Modifying the formatted username is something very hard to accomplish correctly in ALL places.

Why don't you paste your icon inside the group Username Style input field? Something like:

<span title="{username}">{username} <img src="icon_url" /></span>

I'm not tryin to discourage your from coding but rather trying to figure out the best way to achieve your objective.

The following plugin code might give you some ideas too:
