I noticed in freebie forums like IPBFree you could change the color of your username with html. However, you can't in IPB?
I'd like to change my display name on my forums to work with HTML so I could change the color (NOT ONLY JUST IN THE WHOS ONLINE LIST).
Please offer advice ^^

go to Members > Manage User Groups
Enter something like this in Prefix: <span style='color:red;'><strong> Enter something like this in Suffix: </strong></span>

That doesn't work! it only changes it for the online list, not the username itself!

If your on about topics, it's because it's CSS controlled.
In the IPB_STYLES.CSS enter the colouring in there
then in the prefex
suffex
Not saying it will work. But I'm having to go out so when I come back I'll text it and work something out if it doesn't.

I've seen mods that change the user name color on the whole board. I can't remember them off the top of my head, but they are out there. Can you also update your profile to include your forum URL? Thanks!
