Profile Fields in a Postbit Dropdown

[Wired1]

If you use this mod please hit INSTALL (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/vborg_miscactions.php?do=installhack&threadid=180309)!

This is an evolution of my Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=180309) mod from 3.6.x.

If you have a pre-3.7.x version installed:
UNINSTALL the old product and reverse the edits. Don't forget to revert those templates :)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

With this mod you can allow profile fields to show up in a dropdown below a user's name and user's title under each post. There are two ways to use this product, and each has its own plugin (and template): Dropdown - Manual (enabled by default), and Dropdown - Automated (disabled by default).

NOTE: The dropdown's title shows up as 's [dropdown_title]. Yes, the 's is hardcoded into the mod. If you'd like this not to be hard coded, simply mention it after hitting install, and if enough of the users want it, I'll change it. Figured if I didn't hardcode it, someone wouldn't figure out how to add it :)

To edit the title:

Go to AdminCP -> Languages & Phrases -> Search in Phrases. Search for the phrase's title: [dropdown_title] (no brackets). Edit and save!

The dropdown is dependent on Profile Field 5 being filled. If the user does not have this profile field filled out, then the dropdown will not show. To edit or remove this restriction:

Go to the Dropdown Call Template. Find and edit, or remove these 2 lines of code (so that the dropdown will always show):
<if condition="$post['field5']">
...
</if>



The Plugin "Dropdown - Manual" is just like the 3.6.x version, all manual edits, but now they're in a template. No more files to manually edit :) Some examples of how to do this are already provided within the template.

Go to AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> [STYLE NAME]
Edit Style: Dropdown Information - Manual


To use the automated dropdown, DISABLE Plugin "Dropdown - Manual" and ENABLE Plugin "Dropdown - Automated". Simple!

"Dropdown - Automated" will automatically create the dropdown for ALL custom fields (it will skip the first 4 default ones).


To sum it up:
Plugin: [U]Dropdown - Manual
PRO: You select which fields, what descriptions, and in what order you want the fields to show up.
CON: Lots of typing


Plugin: Dropdown - Automatic
PRO: Automatic!
CON: no real control, Profile fields 5 and up will show up in order. NOTE: if it is a HIDDEN profile field, apparently only the DATA is hidden, not the field name, so the field name will show up as well. To block a profile field from showing up in the Automatic Dropdown, check out this post (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1529399&postcount=2).

If you use this mod please hit INSTALL (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/vborg_miscactions.php?do=installhack&threadid=180309)!

[Wired1]

Reserved for future use.

----------------------------------------------------------------

To block a profile field from showing up in the Automatic Dropdown:

Edit the plugin Dropdown - Automatic.

FIND: case '4':
break;

BETWEEN those lines, enter in the FieldID's #. For example, for field6, you would make the edit like so: case '4':
case '6':
break;

Repeat as needed. Keep in mind that if an update comes out for this mod, you'll have to make the edit again, so keep notes!

Brilliant, thanks for this Wired1, I would like to send you a few $$ as promised, if you can PM me the details, I'll get on it ASAP :)

[Elenna]

Hi Wired! Thank you for the mod!

Without a screenshot, I'm still trying to visualize this.

I totally get the drop-down and title.

I have a TON of user profile field (60 additional ones), ranging from "Adventure Level", to "House Neighborhood" and "EP".

So if a member named Grin has those fields filled in with "47", "Pemberth", and "104.5", under their name in each post, the drop down will display:

Grin's Level: 47
Grin's Housing Neighborhood: Pemberth
Grin's EP: 104.5

?

Or maybe I'm just impatient and you've uploaded a screenshot in the time I've typed this. :P

[Wired1]

Brilliant, thanks for this Wired1, I would like to send you a few $$ as promised, if you can PM me the details, I'll get on it ASAP :)Sure, if you want, it's appreciated! I should probably slap up a paypal link up, gotta find the info somewhere.

Or maybe I'm just impatient and you've uploaded a screenshot in the time I've typed this. :PBingo bango bongo :)

Don't forget to hit INSTALL! :)

[Dave-M]

Wired, my old user profile fields info is still partly there, is there any way to use the old info?

Also, in my userCP I still have the extra options link on the left and that just takes me to a blank page now. Can this be got rid of?

Thanks :)

[Wired1]

Wired, my old user profile fields info is still partly there, is there any way to use the old info?Nope, gotta uninstall the old one by reversing the instructions basically.


Also, in my userCP I still have the extra options link on the left and that just takes me to a blank page now. Can this be got rid of?If you don't want an Extra Profile Field Page, sure. Just remember to mark the profile fields to be on a different display page first!

[Dave-M]

Ok, thanks, will give that a try now :)

[Dave-M]

I have got it working, well, the manual setting works for me, but the automatic doesn't - It's not a problem because I needed to redo all the fields anyway.

One thing that you might want to stress in the installation instructions is to completely remove the old version because mine wouldn't work properly until that was done :)

I think the automatic plugin not working may be to do with the old fields being left from the 3.6.8 installation, but I can't find them anywhere to remove them. Anyway, it's up and running using the manual plugin :)

Thanks wired1 and don't forget to put up the donation thing. :D

Edit: forgot to say, I would like to have the dropdown so it just says "system specs" and not "whoever's sytem specs" :)

Edit 2: Go to AdminCP -> Languages & Phrases -> Search in Phrases. Search for [dropdown_title] (no brackets). Edit and save!

I don't get any results for that search :confused:

[tpn87]

Sure, if you want, it's appreciated! I should probably slap up a paypal link up, gotta find the info somewhere.

Please slap up a paypal link... I want to throw some cash your way for this :)

BTW, any way to position this somewhere else in the postbit? I would like it just above the IM icon section.

[SVTOA]

"Go to AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> [STYLE NAME]
Edit Style: Dropdown Information - Manual"

I think you might want to re-word that to say;

Go to AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> [STYLE NAME]
Edit Templates: Dropdown Information - Manual


;)

Anyway, it's up and running using the manual plugin :)I'd have to see it to fix the dropdowns, but ultimately reversing the install of 3.6.x and then popping this in should do it. Yeah, the old code still there could pooch it a bit. Have you reverted all your templates?


Thanks wired1 and don't forget to put up the donation thing. :D

Edit: forgot to say, I would like to have the dropdown so it just says "system specs" and not "whoever's sytem specs" :)Edit these templates:
Dropdown Call
Dropdown Information - Manual
Dropdown Information - Automatic

Find and delete $post[username]'s


I don't get any results for that search :confused:Default it searches for Phrase Text Only. You have to hit the radio button under it for Phrase Variable Name Only :)


Please slap up a paypal link... I want to throw some cash your way for this :)

BTW, any way to position this somewhere else in the postbit? I would like it just above the IM icon section.Edit whichever Dropdown plugin you're using.

FIND:
postbit_userinfo_left

REPLACE WITH:

postbit_userinfo_right_after_posts
OR
postbit_userinfo_right

They're at the same location, so use either or, but not both :)

[Dave-M]

Thanks, working perfectly now on manual :)

[Wired1]

Thanks, working perfectly now on manual :)Removed the old stuff?

[Dave-M]

No, I couldn't find where I had entered the info into the templates for the old version to make the automatic plug in work, but the manual is working as it should :)

I went back through the installation instructions for the old version and did it all in reverse, it was the two large chunks of code that were stopping it working, so I removed those and got the manual plugin working.

[MarkoXaser]

wired my dropdown don't show :( ufff

[Wired1]

wired my dropdown don't show :( ufffAre you using the Manual or Automatic one? Are the fields filled in?

[KHALIK]

a stupid question,

but where are the instuctions for the manual edits and what templates do I edit?

I just want field10, field11, field12 and field 13 to be displayed only.

[MarkoXaser]

Are you using the Manual or Automatic one? Are the fields filled in?

manual and i've put the fileds in..... :(

[Wired1]

Well, seeing your forum, looks like you have a different mod installed that has profile fields in the post header. That may be interferring. Disable it, and see if it works.

Also, try the automatic dropdown.

[MarkoXaser]

ehmmm....different mod? i don't understand....i create a user with admin power and send a pm?

[Wired1]

ehmmm....different mod? i don't understand....i create a user with admin power and send a pm?

NO. NO. NO. NO. NO.

Disable ALL Products / Plugins except for this one, see if it works.

You sent me a link to a forum earlier. That is the one I am talking about, it has profile fields in the post header. Do you have more than one forum?

[MarkoXaser]

i try to remove this...but nothing is changed

[Wired1]

You tried, or you did?

[KHALIK]

OK,

1) Installed the mod, perfectly.

2) searched under current style "dropdown_title" and manage to find.. Dropdown Information - Manual Template.


3) Edited that template " Dropdown Information - Manual Template" to the following;

<!-- post specs_menu -->
<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="specs_$post[postid]_menu" style="display:none">
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">
<tr>
<td class="thead">$post[username]'s $vbphrase[dropdown_title]</td>
</tr>

<if condition="$post['field10']">
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option">Motherboard: $post[field10]</td></tr>
</if>

<if condition="$post['field11']">
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option">Processor: $post[field11]</td></tr>
</if>

<if condition="$post['field12']">
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option">Memory: $post[field12]</td></tr>
</if>

<if condition="$post['field13']">
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option">Video Card: $post[field13]</td></tr>
</if>

<if condition="$post['field14']">
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option">Monitor: $post[field14]</td></tr>
</if>

</table>
</div>
<!-- / post specs_menu -->


4) Saved template



The drop down under postbit does not appear :( what am I doing wrong?

[MarkoXaser]

i remove and nothig appear....

[Wired1]

Marko, Khalik:

Go to Dropdown Call Template.

Find and remove these 2 lines:

<if condition="$post['field5']">
</if>

[MarkoXaser]

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!!!! Woooorksssssss

[MarkoXaser]

ok, you are great! now only one thing, the "'s" is possible to remove it?

[Wired1]

ok, you are great! now only one thing, the "'s" is possible to remove it?I answered this on the first page. You need to edit it out from the 3 templates.

[KHALIK]

1) Edited the Dropdown Call Template as sugguested :)

<!-- post specs_menu -->
<div id="specs_$post[postid]" class="vbmenu_control">
<a href="#specs">$post[username]'s $vbphrase[dropdown_title]</a>
<script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("specs_$post[postid]"); </script>

Wired1

A+++ for a brilliant mod, working perfectly on 3.7.0 GOLD

I originally had it running on 3.6x now I have it running on 3.7 flawlessly with your help and support.


Thank you :)


Installed

[neologan]

looking forward to installing this later today.

btw, i looked on your forum and in your profile, the system specs link is the last one, how would i get it to be after say, the "about me" tab?

[ComputerVitals]

Awsome!! you get and A+ for that one.
You can see it in action here:

ComputerVitals, wired post a screenshot, why link to your forum? SPAM!

[Wired1]

MarkoXaser, KHALIK: You're welcome!


btw, i looked on your forum and in your profile, the system specs link is the last one, how would i get it to be after say, the "about me" tab?Wrong mod! Please post in the appropriate thread so that all of the users of it can benefit from the Q & A.


Awsome!! you get and A+ for that one.Thanks, but you get a C-, you should be using my Extra Profile Fields Page (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=179989) so you don't have to tell your users to "Scroll to about the middle of the page, in the Thread Display Options", just to enter in system specs. Make it easy for them :) Of course, if you use that, then you'll want my Add-on for it, my Extra Profile Fields Tab (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=180329), so that you can see their system specs in their profile (and not under the About Me tab).

[ComputerVitals]

Wired1 - I'll check that out, It would be a lot easier.

Jase2 - Wow. Bit touchy arent you.. I thought I'd be nice incase someone wanted to see a working example. If it bothers you that much, PM a mod or the admin and have them edit the post and remove the link.

Got them installed and edited.
Looks real nice now. The specs are easily changed and have the tab in the profile.

Thanks for all your work on this!



1 more question.
Is there a way to allow so we could use the dropdown then click on a selection as a link?

[odeezie]

Awesome Awesome mod Wired! Thank You so much!! :)

Can I make this mod only show up in the user's postbit if they have info entered in the profile fileds? So the ones who do not want to fill anything in will not have a dropdown box?

Thanks again!! :up:

[Wired1]

Is there a way to allow so we could use the dropdown then click on a selection as a link?Need more info. Do you mean you want a user to be able to enter in a URL as a profile field? Or do you want a specific profile field to always be a link to the same thing, and the user would just be entering in the link's title?


Can I make this mod only show up in the user's postbit if they have info entered in the profile fileds? So the ones who do not want to fill anything in will not have a dropdown box?It's in the instructions up top, but I've clarified it a bit since you've read it, so I'll copy it down here again:

The dropdown is dependent on Profile Field 5 being filled. If the user does not have this profile field filled out, then the dropdown will not show. To edit or remove this restriction:

Go to the Dropdown Call Template. Find and edit, or remove these 2 lines of code (so that the dropdown will always show):
<if condition="$post['field5']">
...
</if>

[ComputerVitals]

Need more info. Do you mean you want a user to be able to enter in a URL as a profile field? Or do you want a specific profile field to always be a link to the same thing, and the user would just be entering in the link's title?

So the user could put in different links into the fields.

Example:
When you click the dropdown.
Brand name /Motherboard: Toshiba
CPU: Intel P4 2.6

Where the user put in Toshiba, If the user wanted to link that to a certain website they could enter a URL then you could click on the "Toshiba" and be brought to a link like the model number of the Computer. Then they could also enter a different link for the "Intel P4" to link directly to the intel P4 site.

Thats All I think is missing. If it could be added easily or perhaps a future upgrade that would really top this product off.

Other than that. I think it's awsome.

[Wired1]

I wouldn't recommend allowing users to enter in URLs, as it SCREAMS "Abuse Me!" to idiots and spammers.

Ultimately, you'd need 2 places to enter in data for each line: One for the URL, one for the text. Assuming you'd use profile fields for both of them, you'd have to do something like this:

EDIT TEMPLATE: Dropdown Information - Manual

Find the fieldID that you want to have a link.

EXAMPLE: CHANGE:


<tr><td class="vbmenu_option">Motherboard: $post[fieldY]</td></tr>


TO:

<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href=$post[fieldX]>Motherboard: $post[fieldY]</a></td></tr>


Where fieldX = the profile field ID that contains the URL, and fieldY = the profile field ID that contains the text.

You can use some if statements to clean it up in various ways depending on what you want to do, but that's the gist of it.

[odeezie]

Thank you for clarifying that. :)

[ComputerVitals]

Thanks Wired1 for that. I tweaked the code you listed a bit.

I added the another "if", so if the user doesn't put in a url it doesn't allow a click in the dropdown. Without that, and no url it allows a click and a error 404.

I'm loving this. Thanks for the direction on the linking.

[dtv100]

this don't work for me my postbit have custom codes any way I can do this manually i mean insert codes in my posbit so it show ?

thanks

[Wired1]

this don't work for me my postbit have custom codes any way I can do this manually i mean insert codes in my posbit so it show ?As long as you haven't removed the hooks manually, it should work. If you want to do it with purely manual edits, follow the instructions in the 3.6.x version.

[Dave-M]

Hi Wired,

Remember I had a rogue set of fields that I thought were from the last install?

Well, I went through the installation instructions for the old version and removed the code and files.

I thought it was woring well, but then I noticed that new users didn't have a dropdown, and it turns out that I have a second set of input fields in the user profile page within the adminCP (see pic).

The extra fields look like the old fields from the old hack.

If I have the manual plugin enabled, when new members add their info, the dropdown doesn't appear, until I go into their profile in the admincp and add something to the first field. Once that is done, it all works as it should.

With the plugin set to auto, the dropdown appears, but there are two lots of system specs, one on top of the other.

I have a feeling that if I can get rid of the extra set of fields from the user profile in admincp, this will fix itself, and thats the problem...I can't find any duplicates.

I've searched the templates, searched phrases, but can't find anywhere that these extra fields live.

I've also added all new style templates.

#image here (http://www.clunk.org.uk/mages/fields.png)

Any ideas? :)

Thanks

Dave.

[Wired1]

The etra profile fields page is still partially in there, at least the manual edits are. When you go to the admincp and look at the User Profile Field Manager, do you see both pairs of system specs? If not, you need to do the manual edits for them. Install the 3.7.x version of it, do the 2 manual edits (1 template 1 php). You'll see the extra ones, remove them, then undo the edits and uninstall the product. Check my profile for the link to the 3.7.x Extr Profile Fields Page mod.

[Dave-M]

Yep, I have the 2 sets of system specs, see image in link above :)

I have installed the new extra profile fields mod, and the drop down doesn't appear until I enter anything into the "extra options" fields, but any info that is entered, doesnt show in the dropdown, what shows is the old info that is in the top set of fields in this pic. (http://www.clunk.org.uk/mages/fields.png)

I'm baffled, and don't mind admitting it :D

[Wired1]

Go to User Profile Field Manager, and delete the profiles you want to get rid of. For the manual edit, make sure you are using the correct field #s.

[ssslippy]

Im running in debug mode and its showing your template as red which If im correct means its not cached. Please cache your templates.

[Dave-M]

That worked thanks Wired1 :)

[Wired1]

It's funny that in 3 years, NO ONE has ever asked about caching the template :)

[RedGTiVR6]

I just noticed this while testing another mod. it appears that the users name is not included in the drop down box on the Private message template

Anyone else noticing this?

[Wired1]

PM template? The product should not show up on that template. Not on my test vB install, nor on my live board.

[RedGTiVR6]

Hey all - quick question.

Has anyone else run into an issue on their PM screen? Like when you're reading a PM and that user has their information filled out?

This is what I'm getting:

http://www.mj-garage.com/pics/pm.PNG

The users name isn't showing up...also, when you click on it, none of their info comes up either.

Anyone experiencing this?

[RedGTiVR6]

anyone?

I'm having a very hard time troubleshooting this and would b grateful if ANYONE could either verify or anything!

:)

[JesterP]

Hello and thanks for the great mod, my users all love it.

I would like to add it under the user's title on the memberinfo page. By looking at the variables, I'm guessing it relies on actual message information to pull it all together. Is it possible to put on that page?

I've looked at a rendered page's html and found a few variables that I hard coded in the template like this.


<!-- post specs_menu -->

<div id="specs_43" class="vbmenu_control">
<a href="#specs">$userinfo[username]'s $vbphrase[dropdown_title]</a>
<script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("specs_43"); </script>
</div>

<!-- / post specs_menu -->


All that gets me is a stylized link that spans the entire length of the table it's in, with no dropdown when you click. When I hover over the link the browser statusbar shows:

http://www.xxxxxxxxx.xxx/forum/member.php?u=1033#specs

If I click, I get no menu. :(

I know I'm missing something simple. Can you fill in the blanks for me?

Thank you!!

[Wired1]

There's more to the mod than just that one template edit, and there's better ways to get profile fields into a member page :) Check out my profile, look at my Extra Profile Fields Page / Tab mods.

[RedGTiVR6]

Hey Wired -

i just registered on another forum that has you mod installed and sent myself a PM. It's not showing up there.

I've disabled all related PM mods that I've installed on my forums (again) and it's still showing up.

Do you have any ideas as to where I can begin trouble shooting?

I've now uninstalled all of the mods related to PMs or the UserCP and it's still showing up. I've even uninstalled the plug-in and reinstalled it....as soon as I reinstall it, I check the private messages and it's still showing up like that. Enabling automatic and disabling manual doesn't change anything related to this issue either.

I've gone in with FireBug and looked at the code even.

it shows up as this:
<div id="specs_" class="vbmenu_control" style="cursor: pointer;">
<a href="#specs">'s CarPC Specs</a>


I'm looking at the 'pm_showpm' template right now and it looks like it calls the 'postbit' template. I wonder if that would have anything to do with this? Man I wish I knew how to code....maybe this will be the swift kick in the butt to get me to take some classes...arg!

[Wired1]

Sorry, not a clue! Can't replicate the problem. It's got to be a manual edit or something that's causing it.

[ssslippy]

Any update on cache the template?

[RedGTiVR6]

welp, I'm now at the hopeless stage....

I just COMPLETELY uninstalled ALL mods and plug-ins...not just disabled them, but uninstalled them....

I even tried to revert all templates. what's interesting is that doing so, didn't remove some previous template edits I made for the extra profile page....is that normal?

If you have a development site with a fresh install, you could copy the template code from it to the live setup.

That is if you aren't talking about your test site already. Xampp and vB work well together, I just modify my hosts file to point at my local IP to run the test site locally.

So I take it that you don't play Toontown eh? :)

J

[sflmkv]

I installed and seems to work fine for me, everyone else can't see it? What's going on?

[RedGTiVR6]

If no one else has the fields filled out, or the APPROPRIATE field filled out, then it won't show up under their user name.

you might want to check which fields it's using to determine if it shows up or not.

J

Nope - I actually don't know what that is...lol

I hope you don't mind that I registered. You can feel free to delete my account if you want.

I'm thinking about your suggestion....if I do that, then what happens to all of the other mods I have installed that either made automatic template edits or that required me to make template edits or that added their OWN templates?

And is there a way to get the templates without going through a whole install process? We're building this new site basically from the ground up then going to import all of the information from the old forums. The old forums are 3.6.0. I suppose I could upgrade them to 3.7 then just grab the templates that way? is there even a way to export the templates then import them on the other site? Or will I have to do it all manually?

Thanks for the help!

[Wired1]

I installed and seems to work fine for me, everyone else can't see it? What's going on?Please hit INSTALL for support. Also, read the main post:

To edit or remove this restriction:Do the instructions under that comment.

[sflmkv]

ok... maybe I didn't explain myself properly. User's can't see my profile fields. I can see my own fields though. Thanks.

[Wired1]

The mod doesn't have ANY code that limits who can and cannot see the dropdown. Do you have more than one template? Do you have a link to your forum?

[sflmkv]

ok I figured it out, thanks

I did it manually. I don't know of a way to get all the base template code to compare other than installing. It was a painful upgrade for me due to the time it took me to get my local copy 100% before I upgraded onlne. Once upgraded live, I just reverted online and copied/pasted the template code I picked through locally to the live site.

I dread the next time I have to go through that, but I'm hoping I'm just noob and there is an easier way.

I have alot of mods and went from 3.6.8 to 3.7.0. Your mileage may vary!

[RedGTiVR6]

AH HA!

Your post gave me an idea.

I started going through all of my templates that were red and comparing current to original, I found a template that was IDENTICAL but for some reason it was showing up as having been edited....so i reverted it and voila! It's fixed!

[ssslippy]

Here is the version with cache put in. Without having your templates cached you were creating an extra 2 queries on the database. I also did the cache properlly so it only puts it into the cache when the template is shown.

Also note your mod shows up the users PM's and $post[username] does not work in private messages.

[Wired1]

That makes 2 people that have that issue, out of 40 installs so far. I can't duplicate that problem with 3 different forum setups (1 default testbed, 1 live setup, and someone else's live setup).

[EDIT]

Oookkk.... for whatever reason, the bug is now showing up on my testbed's PM system. Maybe 3.7.1 caused it? Doesn't make any sense. Anyway, I'm working on a fix.

Aannndd.... it's stopped showing up in PMs by itself... oookkk...

[Wired1]

Ok, I just set up a BRAND NEW test bed, and the dropdown does NOT show up in the PMs.

3.0.1 will be up tonight w/ the cache plugin provided by ssslippy, without the template cache for PMs, as I cannot duplicate this problem in a clean test bed. I'm gonna throw in another surprise as well :)

[RedGTiVR6]

man! I'm sorry it's happening to others now, but I'm very happy to know that it's NOT just me...lol

Thanks for all of your work Wired! This mod should be standard on vbulletin...or at least they should make it standard and pay you lots of money for the rights.

:D

:DNo problemo. Been busy ATM, so I appreciate ssslippy making a solution for the cached templates. Easier than I thought actually. v3.0.1 is now up, which also contains a possible fix for the PM issue.

[RedGTiVR6]

to answer your question...I wouldn't mind the drop down in the PM template....but it's not a necessity.

Thanks again!

[ssslippy]

What was the fix applied to the PM issue? Does this require a template change?

[Wired1]

Only some plugin code was changed. I take it you're wondering about the Manual template? No worries, I didn't change the version # on it, so it doesn't override the existing one. Didn't know that for sure actually until I installed it on my live site :)

[ImmortalForums]

Im not worried about it overwriting, what Im wondering is what code changes I need to make to my customized template to make it work.

[Wired1]

Im not worried about it overwriting, what Im wondering is what code changes I need to make to my customized template to make it work.If you check at the top, it does not list that this mod has manual template changes.

Well, if you want you can use the manual dropdown, but it's a template from me, not from Jelsoft, so it won't affect anything you already have set up.

[UK-Biker]

Great mod Wired, compliments the extra profile fields/tab mod nicely.

Question. Where it shows the drop down menu with shaded blue box and white text, can this be modified ie; change shade colour/text colour ?

Many Thanks

Yep, it's just standard CSS. You'd have to edit the templates.

[Zero2Cool]

After install and filling my own extra fields with my pc specs, i can't see the dropdown menu.

EDIT: i found the problem -> vBExperience ;)

[blind-eddie]

I see other members are having some issue's as well.
Some member's on my board have their extra info filled in & no dropdown appears.
Some have nothing filled in & the dropdown appears.

I am confused. Any idea's?

[Wired1]

Code's not being copied correctly, or instructions aren't being completely followed. The code's pretty basic. It hasn't really changed in years.

[blind-eddie]

I added it without flaw. It will only work on every other member. Not sure why, but it is.
I did not alter anything from the install.

[Wired1]

This mod has no code in it for user IDs or user groups, so something else is interfering. Have you tried disabling all other plugins as a test?

[blind-eddie]

I disabled all plugins, and enabled just yours. No difference.
I have 3 members that I know of that does not show their dropdown, even though
they added their info. Some members can not see other members drop downs.
Weird I know.

[Wired1]

Oh, I know what it is. Did you keep in the conditional (as noted in the description above)?

[blind-eddie]

I guess I need to read everything a lil closer.....that was it

[shlomot]

Dear Wired1, thanks again for yet another great mod.

Please help me to diagnose why I cannot see the dropdown on my profile pages.

1. I cannot see it with either manual or auto plugin.

2. I cannot see in in either style (including default).

3. I removed the field5 conditional from Dropdown Call.

4. It's the first time that I install this mod in any version.

I do not mean to spam, but here is (http://www.topsynergy.net/members/topsynergy.html) an actual profile page in case you need to look at it.

Thanks again and a lot.

Hello,

I've had this mod installed on www.thebrrrgh.net for a while now without issues and it appears on the front page which is vBAdvanced.

I started another forum www.wizard101central.com and although it appears just fine inside the site, it stubbornly refuses to show on my front page which is also vBAdvanced.

The code was copied directly out of the working site and placed in the same locations. I'm wondering what I could have missed. Any ideas where I could look?

Thank you in advance!!

[Wired1]

Not a clue as it's not designed for that. However, looking at your sites, the one that it works w/ vBA on has vB 3.7.0, and the other one has 3.7.2.

[Wired1]

I want to put this on the bottom of my post bit legacy and then have it go up when someone clicks it. How can i do this?

You would need to know which pre-existing vB hook you want and then edit the plugin to point to that hook. As for scrolling up, I'd guess you'd need to write custom javascript code for that. This mod is calling vB's dropdown function.

[ForgotenDynasty]

how can i get something to execute based on witch radio button they check or like what they select.

IE
two radio buttons
1) Red
2)Blue

now if they mark the red radio button then it executes one thing
and if it checks the blue one it executes something else

like:
if (field1=red) {
execute this
}

elseif (field1=blue){
execute this
}

else{
execute this
}


However how could i do that in a way that the templates would understand:confused:

[Wired1]

Sorry, but that's got nothing to do with my mod. I'd suggest you post your own thread.

[MjrNuT]

Hey Wired1,

This is a great mod as well as your mods related to the Profile Page and Tab. I have both of those installed and working on my v3.7.2.

For this one you have, I guess I'm not really understanding your instructions. Since I have the Page and Tab mods working, which means I have created the extra fields already, does this mean for the Manual part of this hack, to create the corresponding fields in the postbit template? Or can the Automatic one be used such that it ties directly to what I have already setup?

I was having a hard time figuring out how to DISABLE the Manual and ENABLE the Automatic. Kindly hold my hand, please?

FYI, my starting extra field is field6.

Edit: I found how to DISABLE/ENABLE...sheesh!!

I'm satisfied atm. :D

Thanks again for your creativity!

[Wired1]

Manual is for changing the order of the fields, or tweaking the look, etc. Automatic does it in the field # order.

[Geeps]

I might have missed this, but in automatic mode, how do you make it start at field # 7 instead of Field #5?

Thanks!

[Geeps]

Nevermind. I went back and reread this thread. It's working great now.

The box is because of your theme. Not sure where, but I'd imagine you could edit the CSS for that, and make it apply for just the postbit dropdown.

Haven't done any 3.8.x beta testing myself, but if you disable either plugin, and the other one works, then it's probably an issue w/ the beta. Assuming as such, post on vBulletin's site and inform them that 2 plugins on the same postbit hook causes that issue.

Hey, Wired!

Love the mod, friend...

I don't know if this has been covered here, but if you enable the custom title for some user groups...and they use a long title...it screws up the image under the rank in the postbit. Makes it longer than it should be.

Is this bug...if so, is there a fix?

Sure thing...

Here ya go...

[Wired1]

I'd guess there's a div box around that area or something and the dropdown function maxes out the length by default. Just a side effect of having the dropdown there. You may be able to change the width in the Dropdown Call template, but my CSS is rusty :)

[Uber_Tiny]

I must be missing something. I have done everything I can to figure out where you would fill out the information for it to show up in a drop down. There are no options in the User CP on my forums. I am using vBulletin? Version 3.7.4.

site - www.geforce3d.net

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Just as I say that, I figure it out. To bad it's not in it's own section like some forums have it with the ability to select it from "Settings & Options" in the USER CP.

[Wired1]

You can change the edit link location.

[lazyseller]

Working Great Wired1!

I created two extra profile pages. How would i go about creating the second dropdown? for my 2nd extra profile page

[Wired1]

You'd have to modify the names of all of the variables and template names (e.g. add a 2 at the end). However, I have seen posts where people have issues when more than one plugin uses the same hook to display data, so I don't know if this would work or not.

[japancars]

I like that mod! Exactly what i'am searching...

But i have still one Problem. I use this to display different mods of the User Cars. Some fields have multirows. How can i display them correctly? In the picture you can see what i mean. The width of the table is to high...

http://img397.imageshack.us/img397/2145/problemfr7.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

[Wired1]

What format are those profile fields?

[japancars]

In German Mehrzeiliges Textfeld.

It is for a few rows. 500 signs and 5 rows.
So not the single row textfield.

[Wired1]

Multiline text fields. looks like vB's dropdown implementation code doesn't take into account line breaks. Problem's with their code, out of my hands.

[japancars]

is it not possible to write something like max 70% in your mod? For the table width?

[Wired1]

You could, however that doesn't fix the actual problem. This wouldn't wrap the lines at the end of the actual line breaks, just at the max width set. Also, "max-width" is implemented differently in each web browser, so you'd have to work in other code depending on the browser.

Just re-looked over the code, and if the dropdown code was completely rewritten, and the end lines were parsed out beforehand, it could be done, but I don't have the time to rewrite their code to suit my needs. I'll just wait until vB 4.0 or whatever :)

[Arachnophiles]

In the old version of this mod (v2.1.1) I was able to contain the dropdown width using the following code for each posbit entry. Not ideal, but it did the trick:
<if condition="$post['field13']">
<tr><td class="alt2" width="670px"><b>Field Desc:</b> $post[field13]</td></tr>
</if>


However, now installed mod v3.0.1 with vB3.8 and it doesn't seem to work :( Any ideas?

Edit: apepars to be fine when viewing in IE, however Firefox stretches off the page.

[Saviour]

Will this mod work with 3.8? I currently have it installed, but it only installed one version...not two. No telling if the version installed is manual or automatic.

Will uninstall until a version for 3.8 is available...

[Wired1]

Tested it with one of the betas a while ago and didn't see any issues. Planning on testing it out this weekend.

[Saviour]

Well...

What did ya come up with Wired? I had this mod installed with my previous version of vB, but now...with 3.8...it no workie.

Sorry about that mate. It seems the issue I was referring to was last commented on in Aug. 2008. I didn't notice that.

Issue:
- User posts a reply using the quickreply box
- Message is posted BUT dropdown menu doesn't appear until the page is refreshed

The above was not a big issue until the introduction of live topic to our forum. Now users can go 30-40 replies without a page refresh and having that dropdown broken is plain annoying.

My question is whether or not it's possible to fix this. Not necessarily you, but just, is it possible?

Using the file you currently have, neither the manual or automatic works.

Tried it on my UPGRADED test bed, works fine. Got any other mods running? I'll see if it works on a fresh install soon.

That's it...

Do you see anything that may be conflicting with this mod? When I run your product xml...only one product is installed. It does not install the manual and the automatic. It just installs one product...and it's not labeled. So I'm not sure if it's the manual that was installed or the automatic. However, it is enabled after install. Also, the two templates show up, as well. However...like I said...it doesn't work.

So, if you got it to work, there has to be a conflict somewhere.


Thanks for looking into this for me, Wired...much appreciated.

In the old version of this mod (v2.1.1) I was able to contain the dropdown width using the following code for each posbit entry. Not ideal, but it did the trick:
<if condition="$post['field13']">
<tr><td class="alt2" width="670px"><b>Field Desc:</b> $post[field13]</td></tr>
</if>


However, now installed mod v3.0.1 with vB3.8 and it doesn't seem to work :( Any ideas?

Edit: apepars to be fine when viewing in IE, however Firefox stretches off the page.

Hi, any update/fix with regard to the above (drop down stretches off page in Firefox)

Cheers,
Adam

I'm not sure if the problem I'm having with getting it to work with 3.8.1 has anything to do with the mods I currently have installed, but would really appreciate any feedback from the coder, or someone else on this one.

Like I said...this is an awesome mod...and my members miss it, but I just can't seem to get it working at all for 3.8.1.

sorry for the delay, haven't had a chance to look into that on a fresh testbed (work went to hell).

[Arachnophiles]

Sorry to be a pain (and keep asking) but does anyone have any ideas on how to fix the "dropdown stretching of the page" problem?

Cheers,
Adam.

So is there anyway to remove the username before the phrase?

So I only want it to say the phrase, not the persons username

Remove this from the 3 templates:
$post[username]'s

Are there any plans to update this to work with vB4?
