vb variable for user's email address?

[58sniper]

Is there a variable in vb that holds the users email address when viewing the site? I'm working on an "Add To My Yahoo" option, but want to do a conditional to only show it if the user has a @yahoo. in their email address.

Thanks!

It's in the $bbuserinfo array for sure, probably $bbuserinfo[email]

Moved to General vBulletin Questions - please read the forum descriptions more closely in future :) You can only get the email of a user if they are registered. If so use:


<if condition="strpos($bbuserinfo['email'], '@yahoo') AND $bbuserinfo['userid'] > 0"></if>


Untested but it should work :)

My fault. I figured this was a safe bet, but I guess not. :ermm:

Hmmm...okay, my method of putting it into a template isn't going to work, since vB complains about calling a function. I'll have to find a way around that.

But your method makes me wonder if

<if condition="strpos($bbuserinfo['email'], '@yahoo')"></if>

wouldn't do the same thing. If the user isn't logged in, then $bbuserinfo['email'] couldn't possibly pass the strpos check. Correct?

Thanks for the info!
