Yup, I'm persistent :p, I want the option to change the location of the profile bit stating username/avatar/posts/etc to the left. And guess what? It's easy!!1
In fact, I looked up how to do it on the vBulletin forums, and found this post (made by a developer guy):

(1) Create a new Custom Profile Field of the your choosing (yes/no / radio / select). I am going to use a single-selection menu for this demo. I put in two options "Top" and "Left". At the very bottom of the custom profile edit page, set the Display Page option to Options: Thread Viewing. Submit your new profile field.

(2) Now you are redirected to your list of custom profile fields. Find the new field you selected and note its Name. Mine is called field66 for example.

(3) Then I placed this in my phpinclude_start template:
PHP:
if ($bbuserinfo['field66'] == 'Left')
{
  $vboptions['legacypostbit'] = 1;
}

Now everyone will default to top style but can choose left style in their User CP. You can adjust the code to default everyone to left style by enabling the vboption for legacy postbit and then changing the above code to:

PHP:
if ($bbuserinfo['field66'] == 'Top')
{
  $vboptions['legacypostbit'] = 0;
}

Original thread, it's the 5th post

So well, if an admin or whoever has access to the admin panel and files etc would sacrifice 5 mins of their life, me and lots of other users would be very happy:)

Please?


Pretty please?
 
I don't get it. It's useless. And I think the whole thing is perfect.
But if you're saying an option for who doesn't thinks the same - OK.
But change the whole thing, NO. It's great as it is.
 
I still need to fix the postbit templates as they're looking a bit dodgy right now. But 'soon' :D

Well changing the whole thing could be done without changing anything, but adding a user option(!) requires this little bit of code and setup. So no problems there :)
