Question How to show the user group at the post profile?

Hi, I really would like to show the user group of each user next to his post. I mean between his Name and his Avatar. How can I do this?

regards

User Groups ... hmmm ... meaningless in J! 2.5.

Possible in J! 1.5. Therefore it depends on what we're discussing here.

We're talking about Joomla 2.5
I also made a little picture, to demonstrate it better:

and if I could use pictures instead of just text would be great. I think I have to handle this in the code itself, but that's a little bit too difficult for me and I didn't find the right solution by googleing.

This is an interesting topic - in part because it was also one of the first questions that i asked here on this forum several years ago and, in part, because I am not sure what happens on J! 2.5 with K 2.0 because I have not personally tested this. In the days of K 1.7, I would have replied with an answer as I wrote in Joomla user group not updating in Kunena - please help . The analog for the the setting in K 2.0 is

Forum configuration » Extras » Userlist » Show User Type = Yes

Try it and see if it works.

great idea, but not really the solution it shows a title, but not the title of the Usergroup, just if the User is a "User" or a "Moderator", "Supermoderator",... like it's set in the special rank. I know, I could create special ranks now and name them like my user groups, but then I have to change the level of each user each time manually and that's too much work.

As I mentioned earlier, the concept of user types (as we understood the term in J! 1.5) is somewhat foreign to J! 2.5. We've had this kind of discussion before where people have asked questions like "I would define my own user types, based on Joomla ACL user groups, and then display this information on the forum." The fact of the matter is that Kunena has not fully embraced this idea and the functionality to deliver it does not exist in K 2.0.

This, perhaps, is one of the last few areas of total compliance with J! 2.5.

Unless someone else in the community has a solution to your problem I have nothing else I can add to what I have written.

Okay, it's a pity but I can't change it at the moment. Hopefully someone will find a solution soon.
