    Only the titles, not the things that come after the :

    Is it the postbit template I need to use? And where should I add (and what) to make the tittles bold?

    Just search out the titles within the postbit template and wrap them with <b></b>.

    or <strong></strong> - or find the phrase and add it to the phrase.

    use <strong> not <b>

    I hate <b>

    My sanity will die if I see <b> tags

    Seriously

    Same here. It has to be "stronged" (for extra muscle, her pleasure) ;)

    Use <b> if you want, its quicker, and no end users care ;)

    I tried to do this but ended up with a parse error :eek: :)

    Will have another go tomorrow I think, no more parse errors this evening :nuhuh:

    Adding <strong> tags shouldn't provide parse errors unless placed in the wrong spot.

    Is this this that I need to edit:

    <if condition="$post['field2']"><div>$vbphrase[location_perm]: $post[field2]</div></if>

    Where should I add the strong part :D

    I tried it, and it did not work. I did this:

    <if condition="$post['field2']"><div><strong>$vbphrase[location_perm]:</strong> $post[field2]</div></if>

    <if condition="$post['field2']"><div><strong>$vbphrase[location_perm]:</strong> $post[field2]</div></if>

    There's no reason why that shouldn't work...

    If your having trouble with it I would just wrap the "strong tag" where applicable in the postbit/postbit_legacy template.

    Wait, you may be doing it to the wrong template. There's two that affect the postbit, they are called: postbit, and postbit_legacy.

    You pick between them, the postbit is the original postbit design (user information at the top of a post), and postbit_legacy is what's used on AdminExtra.com (user information at the left of a post).

    Make sure you're editing the right one.
