Don't show user group name when using icons

As you can see here, I use some small coloured icons for the user groups of my board. My question is, is there a way to hide the user group name under these icons?

Second question: When a user is a board moderator, the normal member group icon is shown instead of the board mod icon in boards where he is board mod. Oh my, does anyone understand what I mean?  :D  Here's an example. The user hungryeinstein is board mod in this board, but the board mod icon is not shown, just the one for normal users. I think when the user has a special position in this board the icon for this group should be shown. Hm, maybe this is more of a support question?

I missed that, sorry! :-[

1) In GenericMessages.template.php, the lines are:
Code: [Select]
		// Show the member's primary group (like 'Administrator') if they have one.
		if (!empty($message['member']['group']))
			$poster_div .= '
							<li class="listlevel1 membergroup">' . $message['member']['group'] . '</li>';
removing them will hide the name.

2) As you can see here, the local moderator badge is shown, because this is the usual behaviour. Your example, though, is a "global moderator", this and administrator are the only two exceptions to the rule and are two groups that have precedence over "local moderator".

For 2: Bad example. hungryeinstein is now global mod and no longer board mod. I changed his status this weekend, sorry.

The topic is not solved.

Hm... You are right. It seems it is working on my forum too.  :-[

Is it possible only the user hungryeinstein had the problem when he was only board mod? Don't know... Sorry.

Dunno, seems strange that only one user has the problem.

Strange things are happening in my forum. Sometimes likes are shown double in the list and then they unexpectedly disappear.  :o
