Please consider this a beta since I've not tested it fully! so report back if you find any problems!

What are Profile Field Tags?

- Simple, I will give an example :)

Normal Member info Page

Interests; games, pc, video games, doom

Clickable User Fields Member Page

Interests; games (http://www.hardwareforums.com/memberlist.php?do=getall&field3=games), pc (http://www.hardwareforums.com/memberlist.php?do=getall&field3=pc), video games (http://www.hardwareforums.com/memberlist.php?do=getall&field3=video+games), doom (http://www.hardwareforums.com/memberlist.php?do=getall&field3=doom)

As you can see they Words are now are linked, so making it easier to users to search for users with similar interest. Similar to how facebook and other sites work.

Instructions go to AdminCP -> vBulletin Options -> [Sniper] - Profile Field Tags for options

Demo http://www.hardwareforums.com/members/sniper/

Support I can provide better support at www.talkcoding.com

Upgrade You must uninstall the old version called "Clickable User Fields" and then install this.

wow this is really awesome.

thanks

[pcoskat]

Nice! The version for 3.5 was always one of my favorite mods. Glad to see an update for 3.6!

[nikki712]

Great mod! I only have one question. Can you tell me which comma to remove so that it doesn't show up? The profile fields I'm using this mod for doesn't have multiple answers in it, so I have no need for the comma. I'm just not sure which one(s) to remove from the code. Thanks!

[FreshFroot]

seems pretty cool, will try it out :D

[rjmjr69]

Looks interesting I'll wait to see how it goes. Thanks

I'll remove the last comma, so you get the desired effect, will release it sometime today.

Congratulation with a fantastic usefull hack! I wonder why this is not a default feature in vbulletin...?! I just installed it - and until now it seems to work perfect!

I've never understood that, either.

I guess it doesn't matter. As long as we have Sniper, we're cool!

[Kihon Kata]

Didn't work for me LOL, could be that I have a total custom member's page. Here is an example of one: http://www.makeuptalk.com/forums/members/daer0n-35363.html

Oh, I can't remember if you have to register or not to see our profiles or not. Sorry if you do.

what didnt work for you? I need more info if you want to have it working on your forum. Have you made sure each field is searchable via profile fields in admincp.

[ThorstenA]

Very great! Perfect.

Nominated for Hack of the Month

[Kihon Kata]

Have you made sure each field is searchable via profile fields in admincp.Where do I do this? (sorry)

[ThorstenA]

Where do I do this? (sorry)

Just go to AdminCP -> vBulletin Options -> [Sniper] - Profile Field Tags for options

There you can enter the searchable profile field IDs.

Very nice...so we can specify which fields become searchable or not?!? Fab!

Yes, it's really a great product! I nominated it for Hack of the Month!

[Kihon Kata]

Just go to AdminCP -> vBulletin Options -> [Sniper] - Profile Field Tags for options

There you can enter the searchable profile field IDs.Yep, I enabled it already LOL. I thought there was some other setting. Does it matter if I am running a custom member.php? I even added some IDs there, we have many.

[-=Sniper=-]

by custom you mean the template or the actual php file? if its the file most likely, it its only the template it should work fine, I can check it out if you PM with access.

[mrahul]

does this work for 3.6.3 or 3.6.4 ??

[-=Sniper=-]

does this work for 3.6.3 or 3.6.4 ??

old version will https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=120833

edit: I'm not sure when the changes were made to the way the profile fields are handled but I assume since 3.6.*, I'll remove the dependency and you can then try it on 3.6.x.

[BWJ]

As said - you have made a fantastic hack! One little suggestion you may consider: When you click a profile field on a member page - the member list is shown with members with the same profile field data. So what I suggest is that you make the profile fields in the shown member list clickable as well. This makes it even easier for user to click/search around.

[SLY LS1]

Great mod.... luv it

cheers

Kihon Kata; try the new version I just uploaded.

Didn't work. In fact it broke the members pages. It doubled what was displayed and spaced things out bad.

Thanks for trying.

[-=Sniper=-]

I just tested it localy and it works fine! I assume your members have URLs, HTML, or similar coding in their profile fields?

edit: I just checked your forum again, it does seem like your members have HTML links, etc in the fields. While members who have only entered in test e.g. "ball, game, text, form" etc it works fine for them.

Our users have normal BBCODE available in their profiles.

What I did was just installed the xml and it really messed things up on my own profile. I saw everything double in the first field. Go check it out. (the hack is currently disabled)

[-=Sniper=-]

ok, if you have a quick look at my profile on your site, you will see its works, however when using BBCODE in the fields, e.g. bold, it works, but it also includes <b>value</b> in the link, it would require more code to remove these items from the link.

Using bbcode links does break it, again it can be fixed but since using BBCODE in profile fields isnt a default vBulletin feature, I won't make any more changes I'm affraid.

I guess I cannot use it then :(

[chuchukuttie]

Hey,

Why not make the "Age" & "Date of Birth" be clickable. That'll be cool.

P.S - If possbile, can you please make it searchable by "word" ? One of my member has this as his interest: I love music and I love to dance. < Your product makes the sentence clickable, can you please make every word in that sentence clickable? That will be amazing.

Thanks.

I will look into birthday search.

It would not be ideal to make words like "I", "to", "have" clickable, instead ask users to separate each word or sentence they want linked with a comma.

but if you really want to you can edit the plugin and change the code

find all instances of

$fieldvalues = explode(",", $profilefield['value']);

and replace with

$fieldvalues = explode(" ", $profilefield['value']);

that should work.

Ok, thanks a lot. Waiting for the birthday / age search :)

[Dannyloski]

Subscribed to Mod, might install ... Can you set which Profile Field are the ones that get the "Clickable" option?

[ericho]

This is so fantastic - thank you very much.
Installed, but as I've already voted for MOTM I'll have to wait till next month.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

[welovehiphop]

great mod!

[htscpl]

Great Mod ! It really enhances the functionally of members profiles! ** installs **

[Konstantinos]

cool. any way to make it work for the postbit also ?

[ThorstenA]

This product is also compatible with my Memberlist Show Last Visited Users First (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=156945) product. There all users are presented by most activity (last online).

[AKapadia]

I made some extra Fields and I add that in to Vbulletin Option thingy but still it's not working on 3.6.8 :|

[ThorstenA]

It's working in 3.6.8 for me. But one checked profile field item is not displayed on profile.php. If I deactivate this product, it is displayed. Therefore I have deinstalled this other-than-that very great product.

[Shanj]

Fantastic! Just what I want to complete the new VB 3.7
Look forward to your confirm that this is 3.7 compatible. It's being tested this Monday 26 Nov. on www.vbulletin.com forums then released later this week.

I didn't know it was called "tags" so never found it before. Was searching on GLOSSARY or KEYWORDS

Thank you again.

[Jens*]

I tried and it doesn't work with vB 3.7 beta 3....

[-=Sniper=-]

Once vb3.7 is out of beta I will look at updating it.

[BWJ]

Sniper, that sounds great! Your hack is without any doubt potentially extremely usefull for almost any type of website. I didn't upgrade to the latest version of vbulletin simply as a result of the rumours telling that your hack did not work perfectly...

[marcossalazar]

Once vb3.7 is out of beta I will look at updating it.

Awesome hack. I can't wait to use it for 3.7

[puroeuro]

thanks, i had to edit my memberinfo template as it wasn't showing one custom edit for gender icon, as it was showing the red x for the image and the end tag of the img with the alt= stuff. i'll have someone take a look at if it's possible to add that info back the the profile page or not, but it's a great hack. ;)

[GameWizard]

Awesome hack. I can't wait to use it for 3.7
I second that notion! Definietly would love to see this for 3.7, frankly a bit shocked that this isn't default.

[Defkalion]

This is a very nice hack. Has anyone figured out how to make this also integrate the links in the postbit and the memberlist also?

Thanks for the mod, installed.

[Defkalion]

Anyone figured how to integrate the field links in postbit and membelist also?

This would be a major addon. :)

[adwade]

This is STILL one of the most powerful & important MODs I've ever installed to my board.(i.e. Clickable User Fields) Works like a charm, but waiting on a new release before I upgrade to v3.7. MANY Thanxx Sniper, for taking the time/effort to code this as an add-on for vB!
