Description:

Our board allows for a single Registered Account to use 2 different characters.
I would like a code that allows the user to select which 'Character Avatar' to use when posting, so it is easy to see which 'Character' is currently posting instead of having to display a note saying 'Secondary Character is posting' while the Avatar is showing their 'Main Character'.

In addition, I would like this to work on an 'independent basis' meaning that although they select their Secondary Character's avatar 'Avatar B' for a new post, it will not change the avatar used for every post they might have made prior using 'Avatar A'

Thank you in advance for any help you can give!

I can have this set up to where it can be done post by post basis. Such as you would use a bbcode such as [.avatar] and [./avatar] (without the dots) using a link for your other avatar (That can be uploaded to the board, or to an image hoster.

Basically, it would look like this. If this was your starting post.

Code:
 
[avatar]http://google.com/dog.png[/avatar]


And then the rest of the post. I am hoping I am making sense on this.

What people have done before is just create two accounts and install a "Switch Account" code to easily switch accounts between characters. I know this is annoying but it would be a lot simpler.

Tried and cannot make it work. Either the switch code would be better or it can be done in a post. But other than that, I cannot see any way at this time with my limited knowledge of this version of ZB.

This request has gone a lengthy period of time without any new activity, therefore it is being marked as expired. This means that the request was typically too time-consuming or irritating for coders (who provide this service voluntarily in their free time) to complete.

Thank you.
