User Profile Postbit Options

[Stirpes Staff]

The forums software count with two options for the user postbit, which is how the profile of a user shows at each post: Vertical Postbit and Horizontal Postbit.

Since the start of Stirpes, we configured the Legacy (Vertical) Postbit as the default and only option, since this could only be changed as an option for all users, from the AdminCP.

A newly installed code modification now allows the user to change this option from the UserCP.

To change your user postbit, go to: UserCP -> Edit Options
and scroll down until you find User Legacy (Vertical) Postbit
Select "Yes" for the Vertical Postbit (to the left of the post), or "No" for the Horizontal Postbit (on top of the post).
Scroll down to the end of the page and click on "Save Changes".

Question: the land flag and other fields of the users' profile are gone!

Answer: the current land flag is based on a modification that only works for the Legacy postbit (vertical). There will be another installed for the postbit (horizontal) in due time.

Other field profiles were specifically created for the Legacy postbit (vertical). New ones will be created for the postbit (horizontal), but they will be kept to a minimum.

Question: the username shows duplicated!

Answer: you are using the posbit (horizontal). This is a known issue and it will be fixed soon.
