[help] postbit background

Is this a plugin or a manual modification in mybb?

Any tutorials for this? I've searched but only found this plugin https://mods.mybb.com/view/group-post-css from this thread https://community.mybb.com/thread-98264.html, but I do not know much about css to modify postbit look like that :/

Extremely easy. Please don't try to run a forum if you don't know anything about web design or development.

find ".post.classic .post_author" in global.css
change background property to url('path/to/image')
fix your background sizes or whatever

note: this makes all posts have the same background. if you want to change certain users to specific images, you will likely need a plugin (or for certain usergroups you can use template conditionals)

New user to mybb means nothing. You're a new user to web development.

1. The person knows what they mean. They are new to this and shouldn't be discouraged for not knowing this. How else would they learn? Why not have a forum to test on? 2. In the post the user showed control panel settings for custom fields where the user's postbit background is unique. So they were asking how to do *that*. This is more advanced and should not be attempted by new users until they have better education on PHP and MySQL. They need to create a new table for custom profile fields, and implement a feature that posts that user's image they specified in their control panel and just displays a base color of none are set. So this can't be easily done easily for new users without an already-made plugin, although for experienced users, it is relatively easy if you know the right things.

I know this is old but holy fuck, you are a jerk. How did you learn? Did you wake up one day and just fucking know how to do everything you know today? No, you either researched online, read it in a book, or learned by trial and error.

Imagine posting on an old thread when this is literally in your face.
