Signatures for Forums

Signatures for Forums provides user signatures that will be familiar to users of popular forum software.

1. when a user changes their signature, all their posts will be updated;
2. signatures are automatically added to posts, instead of being inserted into the post text;
3. the administrator can choose the input filter for signatures, allowing BBCode or HTML to be used;
4. signatures are longer than the the Drupal default (to match other forum software);
5. conditional signatures, these are hidden (or rel=nofollow'd) if a post is under a particular length;
6. show signature only once per conversation (also works with threading);

This module was developed for The Webmaster Forums (who have recently moved to Drupal--yes, we do like Drupal's forum!)

The name of this module is 'Signatures for Forums' because it acts like most forum software, not because it is restricted to forums only. This module can be used with any node type!

Themers: it's now possible to switch off automatically adding signatures to content, so they can be placed anywhere in a theme. To add a signature to a theme use

(where $a1 is either a node or comment object). You don't need to worry about this unless you absolute control over where the signature goes, the default should work for most sites.

PostgreSQL is supported. On the demonstration site (linked below) all user's signatures are managed by this module.
