On something like this, the wait could be a while. ;)

As long as there are profile fields to do it, I don't see them adding something like this to the core code. I don't think there's that much call for it.

I am a big fan of increasing the number of things a user can customise. I was once told that community utopia is reached when a user has total control over what they see on the screen.

For some reason mine just doesn't want to work. We run 3.5.1. Should it work on this version?

I create the User Profile field, install the product, change the settings, but it always stays with the forum chosen option.

I looked at the XML file, and I found the following:
<![CDATA[$dateformatbh_field = "field{$vbulletin->options[dateformatbh]}";
if ($vbulletin->userinfo["$dateformatbh_field"] != "Use Forum Default")
{
if ($vbulletin->userinfo["$dateformatbh_field"] == "Normal")
{
$vbulletin->options['yestoday'] = '0';
}
elseif ($vbulletin->userinfo["$dateformatbh_field"] == "Yesterday/Today")
{
$vbulletin->options['yestoday'] = '1';
}
elseif ($vbulletin->userinfo["$dateformatbh_field"] == "Detailed")
{
$vbulletin->options['yestoday'] = '2';
}
}]]>

The "yestoday" doesn't look right, but I changed it to "yesterday" as well, and it didn't work either.

Any ideas what could be the problem?

Thanks

Anyone know if this works with 3.6.0? A couple of my members were asking for this.
