Hey,

I need to have the postbit templates different for different posts. I want the first post to appear in one way and all the other posts to display differently.

What I mean is that the first post will show the full postbit and all replies will only show the username, rank & avatar without post count etc.

Is this possible? If so will I need a plugin etc?

Cheers,
Clarkie

I think you are looking for something like this: (e.g.) http://mybbhacks.zingaburga.com/showthread.php?tid=274

No I'm not talking about quotes. I'm talking about each post. I want the first post to appear as usual but I want all replies to the topic to use a different template which will have less. I'll photoshop a version for you.

Like this and I'd also remove sigs etc from the replies.

You could use PHP in Templates.

Install and activate the plugin above, create your template called 'postbit_mini' (for instance) and in the 'postbit' or 'postbit_classic' (depends on which you are going to use), put this:

<if $postcounter > 1 then>
<template postbit_mini>
<else>
<!-- here the code that already was in the postbit template -->
</if>

I haven't tested it.
