Each template will do the next bit differently so I have given an examples.

OPEN

viewtopics_body.tpl and viewforums_body.tpl

FIND

{S_AUTH_LIST}

AND

encapsulate in a table like below

viewtopic_body.tpl

Line number On/Off | Expand/Contract | Select all

<table class="whitebox" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">   
   <tr>
      <td height="15"><img src="images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="8" /></td>
      <td align="right" width="100%">
      <!-- Michaelo's right mod scrolls rights in single line -->
         <marquee id="rights" behavior="scroll" direction="left" width="100%" height="12" scrolldelay="60" scrollamount="2"  loop='-1' onmouseover='this.stop()' onmouseout='this.start()' >
         {S_AUTH_LIST}
      </td>
      <td height="15"><img src="images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="8" /></td>
   </tr>
</table>

      <!-- Michaelo's scrolling privileges mod scrolls rights in single line -->                                 
      <marquee id="rights" behavior="scroll" direction="left" height="12" scrolldelay="20" scrollamount="2"  loop='-1' onmouseover='this.stop()' onmouseout='this.start()' >{S_AUTH_LIST}
   </td>
</table>

*NOTE*: It is possible to add this mod to one, two, three one by one or all templates at one time. This allows you to update templates at your leisurely. The only requirement is you need to know the ID of the templates you have modified (get it from phpmyadmin).

Then update the code (at top op post and) and replace each *NOTE* with the template ID. I have included *NOTE* twice to allow for two templates but you can have as many as you need but each must have '|| $userdata['user_style'] == ID'

The following code processes Templates whose ID's are 1 and 7

if($userdata['user_style'] == 1 || $userdata['user_style'] == 7 || $userdata['user_style'] == '')

(More code and notes added tomorrow)
