OpenSim supports Avatar Titles (visible in the profile under Account Info / DB: Usseraccounts - User title). We use this to make identification of staff easier for our users. Could you implement this?

hello
do you have more infos about its use ?
i have set a value in my database but i can not see any change in the viewer (imprudence, firestorm)
the only info i can find about this field is at the top of this page :
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Userlevel
if you have some more infos, i can try to have a look but i can not promise anything for sure :)
maybe this can be set using Drupal roles but i need first to know what this field is made for.

i have more infos about this field (thanks to Bluewall and Diva on irc).
this field is used in V1 viewers profiles.
to see this field, the sim owner need to set osprofile module.
i have confirmed it.

what do you think about the ability to define it using roles ?
the admin would select what roles are assigned to this field and then when the role is set to a user, the role name is set to this field for the user.
what do you think about this idea ?

i have added the UserTitle management (make a "git pull" to get the latest version)
to use it :
go to the io profiles admin page : admin/settings/d4os/io/profiles
under the "User title" fieldset, select a role for "UserTitle role" (the name of this role will be set to the field if this role is assigned to the user)
what do you think about this ?

This is what I needed :)

Thank you for the quick implementation. I just updated our installation. Still learning my way around with DRUPAL.

BTW in the configuration ui/users there is a section called "model". What does this section do?

Regards,

Klaus

the "models" section is made to build default avatars for new users grid registration.
this is usefull to don't have ruth or a cloud when new users are registering on the grid.

1/ create some avatars inworld and dress them
2/ add their uuid in the ui users admin page
3/ add an url to the picture that will be displayed to show the avatar on the registration form
4/ when a user is using the grid registration tab to create an inworld avatar, the user will see the pictures and will be able to select an avatar as a model
5/ when creating the account, d4os will simply clone the avatar model's inventory to the new user inventory

here is a picture for the example :
http://www.d4os.org/sites/default/files/d4os/tuts/2012-d6/user/d4os_user_tut_06.jpeg
if there is no uuid for models or if the uuid is uuid zero, nothing will be displayed but if the uuid is a valid one, it will be used as a default model.
by default, the image is druplicon but for sure, you can give any picture link
