Follow-ups Member group color everywhere [ADDON] Colored Names June 18, 2014, 06:37:40 am Colored Names v0.0.3IntroductionMany people like to be different, and this is the second step in the online world to be different: change the color of the display name.At the moment the addon is very basic, it allows a fixed number of elements to be customized: color, background, size, border (style, width, color, border radius), but it already covers most of the needs.Future development:allow the admin to decide what users can customize,add permissions (if requested)other suggested ideas.Licenseo This ElkArte Addon is subject to the terms of the BSD "3-clause" license.

Re: [ADDON] Colored Names Reply #2 – June 18, 2014, 07:39:55 am I also decided to pick a slightly different path in respect to the "normal" way: the colored names are saved in real_name, so that they are available anywhere in the app without having to edit the code.Drawback may play dirty with some stuff (e.g. the mention that will always show the colored form of the name at the time of the mention), but I think it's worth.And if it is not... well, we will see.

Re: [ADDON] Colored Names Reply #5 – June 20, 2014, 03:53:13 pm Way better than altering the buffer too.

Re: [ADDON] Colored Names Reply #7 – December 13, 2014, 08:08:46 am Sorry to bring up an old topic here but where in the admin panel can I find and set the options.
Re: [ADDON] Colored Names Reply #8 – December 13, 2014, 09:01:44 am I don't remember I added any option to set... I wouldn't even know what to let "set" and what not. O_o
Re: [ADDON] Colored Names Reply #9 – December 13, 2014, 10:09:52 am I was thinking there was a setting to enable or disable for certain members groups. So it could be used as a member upgrade.
Re: [ADDON] Colored Names Reply #10 – December 14, 2014, 08:10:15 am So a permission.I think it's possible. Oh, I wrote something about future development... I should read what I write. xD

Oh, I wrote something about future development... I should read what I write. xDI was thinking that this would be a perfect premium member upgrade and allow user in that member group to make their own custom colors. So enable and disable based on member group would be a nice little feature.

Re: [ADDON] Colored Names Reply #14 – June 02, 2016, 08:37:24 am Hi Dadda and welcome. It would be useful to know exactly what error gives you, usually there something more than just the line and the file, like a more or less detailed description or the error.
