PC Hardware info

[Mith]

So many people in so many forums want this and the information given was vague, so i decided to make my own.

Usage:
Although any admin can add user profile fields easily..getting them to show in the correct place in the postbit can be tricky.

This little mod allows your users to add details about their pc and shows it in their postbit.
Adds a little check box to allow them to easily show or hide their hardware.

8 New user profile feilds
1 Template edit

Difficulty -> Easy
Time -> 5-10 minutes
See the txt file attached for install instructions.

V1.01 - added instructions for postbit_legacy

My first ever modification, so if theres any ways of tidying/improving it etc, valuable feedback is appreciated.

This works perfectly well for VB3.5 (All Flavors inc Gold)

If anyone wishes to convert this to a 3.5 plugin, I'd be most interested to see how thats achieved ;-) (Please PM me)

Screenshot incase anybody is curious.

[Stifler]

awesome! thankyou.

[bigcurt]

This prolly wouldnt work good for postbit_legacy but it looks good in postbit, good hack

[Mith]

I'll do one for postbit_legacy tonight. Obv it will go somewhere under the avatar.

[bigcurt]

Yea, it will fit but the problem is with all that info it will extend the postbit alot and make it huge.

[yoyoyoyo]

looks good- thanks.

[Cyricx]

Just put it in a collapseable box for the legacy and it'll work fine.

[vakvak]

thanks.

[Mith]

Are you getting some sort of error?

I'm new to all this myself, but if you can describe better what error or what is happening that you don't expect I'm sure I'll have a stab at helping you out, or I know there are others that will direct you.

The mod is for postbit not postbit_legacy I will look into doing one for legacy now.

find in postbit_legacy:

<div>$post[icqicon] $post[aimicon] $post[msnicon] $post[yahooicon]</div>

Under that put:

<if condition="$post['fieldx1'] == '1'">
<b>Hardware Info</b><br>
</if>
<if condition="$post['fieldx2'] AND $post['fieldx1'] == '1'">
CPU: $post[fieldx2]<br>
</if>
<if condition="$post['fieldx3'] AND $post['fieldx1'] == '1'">
GFX: $post[fieldx3]<br>
</if>
<if condition="$post['fieldx4'] AND $post['fieldx1'] == '1'">
RAM: $post[fieldx4]<br>
</if>
<if condition="$post['fieldx5'] AND $post['fieldx1'] == '1'">
HDD: $post[fieldx5]<br>
</if>
<if condition="$post['fieldx6'] AND $post['fieldx1'] == '1'">
Mobo: $post[fieldx6]<br>
</if>
<if condition="$post['fieldx7'] AND $post['fieldx1'] == '1'">
OS: $post[fieldx7]<br>
</if>
<if condition="$post['fieldx8'] AND $post['fieldx1'] == '1'">
Sound: $post[fieldx8]
</if>


Hope thats right.. again if anyone can tidy it, lemme know

[Mith]

also in replt to #15 (showpost.php?p=738351&postcount=15)
vakvak.. remember not to put <leave blank> in the default value field or you defeat the point of the if statements... just leave it empty = blank

[vakvak]

Mith thank you;)

is there a way to put this in the users profile instead of postbit?

Dont add the code to the postbit.

Adding the fields will display in their profiles.

If you only want it in your profile, only follow step 1 in the instructions

In AdminCP
-> User Profile Fields
-> Add New User Profile Field etc

If they aren't showing in your profile, you mustn't of added them yet.
