I think this is a 5 min job for a smart PHP'er!

I want to display a certain html table on someones user profile ONLY if they've entered something in a certain custom profile feild.

Thanks.

[ercollins]

um, that does not explain much, maybe more detail?

<if condition="$profile[fieldX]">
Html code
</if>

<if condition="$profile[fieldX]">
Html code
</if>

Thanks, I'm trying to do it just to show random text for the moment however it doesn't appear to be displaying anywhere...

The ID of this custom feild is 6, do I need to change profile to something else?

[nexialys]

$profile[field6]

[ercollins]

it should look like $profile[field6]

Make sure you are using the actual field ID number and not the Sort display number.

also make sure you have something in that profile field.

[PicoDeath]

The ID is definetly 6 and it's order is 5.

<if condition="$profile[field6]">
<td>What the hell?</td>
</if>

Still not showing, the feild I'm basing it on is the Xbox360 gamertag.

Which has something in it, so it should show.. no?

Why don't you tell us exactly what template you are adding this to and post the exact code you are using (and a little around it so we can see where you are posting it).

[PicoDeath]

MEMBERINFO > MEMBERINFO

<td class="panelsurround" align="center">
<div class="panel">
<div align="$stylevar[left]">


<div class="fieldset">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="$stylevar[formspacer]" border="0">
<if condition="$profile[field6]">
<td>What the hell?</td>
</if>
<if condition="!$show['contactlinks']">
<tr>
<td><strong><phrase 1="$userinfo[username]">$vbphrase[x_has_no_contact_info]</phrase></strong></td>
</tr>
</if>
<if condition="$show['homepage']">
<tr>
<td>
$vbphrase[home_page]:<br />
<a href="$userinfo[homepage]" target="_blank" dir="ltr">$userinfo[homepage]</a>
</td>
</tr>
</if>

Not sure how little you want :p

[Lynne]

Change this:
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="$stylevar[formspacer]" border="0">
<if condition="$profile[field6]">
<td>What the hell?</td>
</if>

to this:

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="$stylevar[formspacer]" border="0">
<if condition="$profile[field6]">
<tr>
<td>What the hell?</td>
</tr>
</if>

And see if that works. You were using incorrect html and that can screw things up.

[PicoDeath]

I tried it both ways before to see if anything happend, I tried again just to make sure and it still doesn't show.

[Lynne]

Have you tried using $userinfo[field6] instead?

[PicoDeath]

That works wonders Lynne, thanks for the help!

[Marco van Herwaarden]

$userinfo will probably contain the settings for the user browsing the profile, not for the user owning that profile.

Try using $show[field6] instead of $profile/$userinfo.

Are you sure, Marco? My cheatsheet (which I admit could be wrong!) says $userinfo for the user you are viewing and $bbuserinfo for you the browser/viewer.

To the OP, one way to check.... you know what *your* field6 should be, is that what is showing up in the page?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

I am basing my assumption (have not even looked in the code) on the other conditions in the same template, they all use $show.
