    I have just finished setting up my own (and personal favorite) mod on AA, the show/hide your own postbit info option. It allows you to hide various postbit information (avatar, join date, post count, reputation, etc.) from the posts that you make (you can still see whatever someone else has shown in their posts).

    To edit the options to your own preference:
    Edit Options (in your User CP) > Thread Display Options > Hidden Postbit Information > Check what you don't want to be shown


    It's nothing big, but I'm hoping you all like it as much as I do. :thumbup:

    Edit: I forgot to give credit to Lynne and Nick for helping me create this mod to begin with.

    Awesome! Is there a way so that I can hide my Experience level, Forum Software and Number of forums I Admin/Mod, but not the link to my own forum?

    It's the forum-related information. It's called ForumAddict on the user's profile so I used the same name. I wasn't sure if I should do it as a group or each field (experience, forums admin/mod, forum software, forum URL) separately. I chose to do them as a group, but it can be changed.

    Ah, sure! I'll change this now and let you know when it's updated (time to break out the calculator, lol (each ID is multiplied by two)).

    I think I can get this fixed with where I place the conditionals, hold on.

    Also, while I change the ForumAddict part, the IDs will not match up with what it says. I suggest not changing anything below "Administrator Experience" in your User CP yet.

    It should be all set for use now. Let me know if it is at all messed up.

    I'll try to fix the extra space by putting the break tags inside the conditions now. :)

    The only thing that bugs me is the space, other than that it's fine :P

    Very nice, I have also done this on my new (unfinished) skin. With if conditions though. Nice job with the plugins and stuff :)

    No problem.



    If I didn't have a user rank (the administrator rank), I'd disable everything but my avatar.

    I was wondering when you'd get around to adding this here - thank you for finally doing so. :)

    Also just noticed how you can hide forums from view... very useful.
