Member profiles

[Dribbles]

Hi, I tried using something like this:

Portrait: <*img src="$post[field5]">

in my member profile pages, but it doesn't seem to work. Is there a special code I need to add so I can use this like I do in postbits? thnx

[Dpcows]

try <img src="{$post[field5]}">

added the { } around the var and removed that *

[Dribbles]

didn't work :(

What does it do? Does it show a broken image? Does it show nothing at all? Kinda hard to debug if you can't see what is happening.

<img src="$post[field5]">

It should work. I have a similar thing running on my site. Make sure the member fills out the whole URL to the image file including the http:// part. Also, make sure the host that they use for images allow remote linking - geocities, tripod etc. do not allow this and you'll get a broken image.

Shows nothing at all .. this is the code I added to getinfo template:

<tr>
<td bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}"><normalfont><b>Portrait:</b></normalfont></td>
<td bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}"><img src="$post[field5]"></td>
</tr>
<tr>

The "Portrait:" part shows up though

not suer if you still want it but instead of putting $post[field5] change that for $userinfo[field5] ;) that'll work

thnx a lot, man :) I figured it out a couple days ago when installing another hack ... saw the userinfo thing and experimented :)
