Conditional Profile Field Status and Notices

[richardevans123]

Hey Guys,

I have got a Custom Profile Field and it acts like a status. Similar to Online and Offline, but Active or Non-Active.

What I'd like to do is when a User Selects the "Non-Active" option, a Notice appears saying that the status is "Non-Active" please change to Active.

What coding do I need to do this?

Thanks

depends what template you want to put it in. But I would imagine something like this

OPTIONS FOR DROPDOWN
Non-Active [has an id of 0]
Active [has an id of 1]

<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['field#'] == 0">
<p style="margin:15px 0;padding:8px;background:#ff0000;color:#333;">Please change to active!</p>
</vb:if>

Where # is your field id, and 0 is the id of the non-active selection.

Okay, the coding is right, but changing the "0" and "1" isn't actually changing anything. I'm working on 4.2.0 PL3 if that helps

i see no custom dropdown profile field on your site.

try == '1' instead of == 1

<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['field11'] == 'Off Active Duty'">
<p style="margin:15px 0;padding:8px;background:#ff0000;color:#333;">Please change to active!</p>
</vb:if>

Try that.

If that doesnt work then try

"Second Option Selected"
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo[field11] & 2"><p>STUFF</p></vb:if>

dont remember exactly but it could be either [field11] or ['field11'] try both. :)

It's done via radio buttons. And neither of those codes work. :/

What template are you posting these in? header/navbar?

[richardevans123]

I'm doing it via a notice

May be a bug as

<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['field11'] == 'Off Active Duty'">STUFF</vb:if>

should work.

[richardevans123]

Got it to work! :D

try using a dropdown single-selection and these conditionals. may just be with radio button.

What was the code that worked? I am curious.

[richardevans123]

<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo['field11'] == 'Off Active Duty'">STUFF</vb:if>

That one!

Thanks for your help
