Yea, I'll look into adding that for the next version. First SMF mod, so still getting to know everything about it.

Great mod! Can it used so that only moderator/admin can edit users color?

[oOo--STAR--oOo]

Great mod would be good if only admins/mods can change the colour orfor certain member groups..
There will be to many Reds Lmfao

There a way to make this so it gives members more than one colour like alternating or looping throughout the name? I want rainbow names options. Thanks!

Not without a complete rewrite of the mod.

[dagwood]

Is there something like this that is compatable with 1.1.11.  If there is haven't been able to find it

[ishy]

I look forward to an update with group permissions!

Thanks Arantor, guide helped me.

New version has been released. I've added permission to specify which group can edit their color. The permission is under "Member Profiles". Any questions or comments let me know.

Thanks to all who are providing translations. I'm sorry I forgot to include them in this update, I'll be sure to do so in the next release once finals are over.

Any questions or help with the mod let me know, I'm happy to help.

It doesn't seem to be working for me. I got the option on profiles, but nothing happened to the color when I tried to change it from the group color (admin red) to gray using hexcode and the color names.

$txt['permissionhelp_profile_ccolor'] = 'Cambia el color del nombre de usuario a lo que éste configuró.';

Are you using the option in Profile -> Forum Profile to change the color? Do not change the membergroup color, I only added the permission so that the "Custom Username Color" field would be visible/invisible if the permission was set.

[ishy]

Yes, I am using the option in the profiles.

[ScopeXL]

Yes, I am using the option in the profiles.

What browser and version are you using?

[Bugo]

Please add a restriction (or even inhibit) on the use of ordinary users of such colors as red and the like
Array of colors can even be set in the settings.
