Hello Bruno,

In Easydiscuss, we do have this feature where you can set the role based on Usergroup. You can add new role in Backend>Easydiscuss>Roles: http://screencast.com/t/wKqVhlAuj and it will be displayed like this: http://screencast.com/t/klNYdZyGtn . For the different background, you can add a custom css code in this file: ../components/com_easydiscuss/themes/simplistic/frontpage.post.php for those has a 'Premium' role which you can identify it like this:



if ($post->user->getRole()) {



}

As for the email, I'm sorry, it will require modification in the core file.

Hi I did what you suggest it worked, but the label did not appeared like your example (within a box) in my case only the text, is there a way to enable this box as well? See the attached image.

About the Background color adjust, can you please explain more details about this:

1 - I created a usergroup called VIP, so when a user has it user group and post in the forum. I want to change the background color to #d9ffff (Hexadecimal)

So I guess I need to use this code, right? Please correct me If I did wrong.

if ($post->VIP->getRole()) {
background-color: #d9ffff
}

Also I dont know exctly where to insert this peace of code in the related page.

With Best regards
Bruno

Hello Bruno,

is there a way to enable this box as well?
- It is because you are using Flatt theme for Easydiscuss and my example is Simplistic theme. However, you can add this code in your template css file:



div#discuss-wrapper .discuss-user .discuss-role-title {

    background-color: #feb5b4 !important;

}

As for the item background, please replace the attached file in: ../components/com_easydiscuss/themes/flatt/frontpage.post.php. You can see how I modify the code on line 26.
