many thanks
This worked great in a couple of places, but when it came to postbit_legacy it didn't work anymore.
Whatever function calls the postbit template seems to be called "once" then again, instead of running the template in a loop. As a result, you need to make the variable global. Use this line before the others to make the $bg variable global:
<if condition="$bg =& $GLOBALS['bg']"></if>
