where does the date go

The date will be for internal use only and will probably be stored in a new MySQL column in the user table or it could possibly be another custom profile field. I am not exactly sure the best way to do this.

Hey Wired_1,

I tried searching this thread but couldn't find any results. I noticed in your System Specs example, you were able to allow single-line text box options.

I've installed everything and got it working correctly on 3.5.4. The problem I'm facing is single-line text box profile field options don't show up on the profile.php?do=extra page.

I'm sure the single-line profile field option I created works b/c when I change the display page to editprofile, it works fine.

Is this a known bug, or just me?

Does the profile field show up on the extra page, the normal member page, or both? The editprofile page you are looking at, is it in the admincp, or just the normal member edit info page that each user has in their usercp? (screenshots would be awesome)

Ummmm.... nope :)

Somewhere in the Extra Profile Page plugin under the submit area I'm guessing, with the appropriate vBulletin database functions.

It's an editable user profile field, so I'm accessing it through the usercp. The link I use is profile.php?do=extra. How I tested it was I changed the display page of the profile field to "editprofile" in the admin backend, and it showed up fine in the users' "editprofile". When I set the display page to "options: extra options", it does not show up. The tests were tested on a "registered users" account in their own usercp.

I hope this explains it well enough. I've included a screen shot though it doesn't show much.. thanks.

sounds like it's done right. so you can basically mark any profile field that's not a single-line text box as extra options, and it'll work fine?

doesn't make sense. Is this site live, or up enough where a temp registered user can be set up so that I can look at it?

wired1, sorry about that, let me try again.

the site's not public yet, it's a fresh install of 3.5.4 that's being modified.

for the extra profile page, i can add any type of custom profile field. this includes single-selection menu, multi-selection check box, etc. the only custom profile fields that do not work is single-line text box and multi-line text box.

when i link a custom profile field single-line text box to the extra options page that this hack created, it does not show up.

does that make more sense?

that's what I said :) the hack's too generic to affect some profile fields and not others, as it just adds that dropdown as an option for all fields to be marked as, and then the new page looks for fields with those marks and grabs them.

do you have any other hacks installed that affect profile fields?

lol great, we both have an understanding now.

i've got a number of hacks installed as well as customized modify profile templates. which template is the extra profile field page in? maybe i made an alteration that causes single-line text boxes to not appear.

to note, i have interactive profiles installed which may alter the profile page some how.
