So all day today I was trying to figure this out, so I decided to show it you guys as well. This is my first code or what ever you want to call it lol.

Anyways,

First make the custom profile field you want to show. To do that Admin CP > User Profile Fields > Add New User Field.

Fill out what fits right for your profile field. Just remember the field number.

Once you did that, go to Admin CP > Languages And Phrases > Phrase Manager > Add New Phrase.

Fill it out as:
Phrase Type: GLOBAL
Product: vBulletin
Varname: (What ever you want it to be)
Text: (Example: If your custom profile field was favorite athletes this should be Favorite Athletes)

Once you did that go to Admin CP > Styles and Templates > Style Manager > (Skin you're editing) > Edit Templates > Postbit Templates > Postbit Legacy

Find:
<span id="repdisplay_$post[postid]_$post">$post[reputationdisplay]</span></div></if>

[U]Below It Add:
<if condition="$post['fieldx']"><div class="postinfo">$vbphrase[varnamehere]: $post[fieldx]</div></if>

Make sure to edit the bold letters/words in the code above.

Please don't be too harsh with this lol. I know there are newbies out there like me that didn't know how to do this.

Any problems, post it in here.

Click Install, and please visit my forum.

This works great.
Has anyone figured out how to use the dropdown profile fields for this. It seems that it reports in postbit as a number rather then the assigned word. I tried the single selection dropdown, but really want the multi-selection dropdown for my application.

Wondering if someone can help me? Only the phrase is showing up in the postbit - the text entered by members only shows up on their profile, and the postbit shows the phrase and the number 1 next to it.

So my phrase is: On my Christmas wish list

What is on the postbit is: On my Christmas wish list: 1

The field number is 15, so I don't think that has anything to do with it?

Are you using a checkbox? If so, this probably won't work (somebody can correct me here). I believe the checkboxes would require a lot more code.

I did 3 of these and only 1 comes up right, the other 2, only the text entered by the user in the user settings shows up
