User Post Count

[Tempus]

I'm looking for a way to use an if condition on my forumhome page which uses post count. I want to display certain messages for members with different post counts.

Example

User A has 10 posts, he see message one.
User B has 100 posts, he sees message two.

I tried using this:

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['posts'] > 10">

But it said soemthing like: adding child to non-existent node!


Anyone know how to incorporate a users post count on pages?

Thats because you forgot to use closing tag for that template </if> :blink:

 

[Tempus]

I know that lol. In my template I did add it. I was just being quick and posting the actual condition lol

 

[JohnnyBoy]

If the template is written properly then you wont get adding child to non-existent node! error i guarantee.

I was editting the navbar template, added that code and tried putting TEST between the condition and it didnt work.

 

[JohnnyBoy]

Paste your navbar code here or put it in notepad document so i can download and so i can check it myself.

 

[Tempus]

Its never been altered. Its standard vb navbar but with my condition.

Just add my condition and type test between. Save and see for yourself.

OMG i just saw it i though you wrote it well ofcourse it wont work it should be different but i cant find it right now trust me, try something like this:

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['posts'] [COLOR=Black][COLOR=Black]==[/COLOR] [/COLOR]10">  </if>

 

[Tempus]

What should be different? Is there a condition for it?

I know you can do it via notices but cant find the code that uses either.

 

[JohnnyBoy]

Your conditional is tottaly wrong and thats why your getting that error, depends on what you need because there are different modifications regarding user require xx posts to do something.

 

[Tempus]

<if user post count < 5, show message 1>

<if user post count > 5, show message 2>

This is all I want.

 

[JohnnyBoy]

I edited one of my posts, check it and let me know if it works as it should do :P

 

[Tempus]

Exaclty the same error. Im not sure if I need to include a file or something on the page/template.

 

[JohnnyBoy]

Thats really strange and i dont get it honestly i would like to check it using teamviewer but im going to sleep right now but i could do it tomorrow, let me know if you want this thing done.

There is a way around it. Create a new usergroup called "over5" or something, and use the same setting on it as you have on "under5". Then just use simple usergroup conditions.

 

[Tempus]

Doesnt work like that. I need post count, not group dependant.

 

[Maniac_]

<if condition="$vbulletin->userinfo['posts'] > 5"> code </if>

Where ">" can be replaced with "<" or "=<" etc

 

[Tempus]

Nope, that gives me the same error too.

Hey Tempus,, I know its an old thread but I thought you might still need help with it..

Try the below code

<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['posts'] <= '5'">
First Message
<vb:else />
Second Message
</vb:if>

 

[Tempus]

Thanks AyoobAli, that's exactly what I was looking for.
