The-Ensemble:
What is in the sub-page, more fields to enter data in, or something else? Either way, you could edit the page template and throw a link in there.

You want the stuff entered NOT to go into their profile, but just into a PM?


garyrogers:
Kewl use of the hack :) Sorry, no clue why it's doing that. Please restrict dropdown posts to the dropdown hack's thread, and vice versa :)


WARNING: allowing users to post links blatently in their profile like that screams for spammers to abuse it. What I'd do is to change it a bit, like so:

and change the field to be a place for their email address only. That way, you know it'll go to the google calendar page. However, this may very well still be abused by crafty coders, although you could probably do some regex parsing on the field itself somehow to prevent this. No, I have no idea how to do it, just that it may be possible :)

Yes, So Users fill out these fields and they all combine and become the content of a PM with a set user and set title. (which I would like to be able to customize because I'll be using this more than once)

Is this possible?

Is it possible to put a link to a picture in this mod. So if i put a link to my picture it came up as a picture in the System Specs

I have a webbpage about marinaquarium and it should be great to use this and want a picture to

best regards

Possible, yes, however it's way outside the scope of this hack. I'd search the forum here for auto-creation of PMs, that would be a good start.

Do you mean you would like the picture to appear in their member profile and/or dropdown? If so, please specify which one or both you mean, and respond in the correct thread, which would be the add-on hack (linked to at the top of this thread).

Yes i want it in the member profile.
Is it possible to have one upload function or is it better to link to a picture in the profile.
So if i put a picture link in one textfield it came up like a picture.

vBulletin Options > vBulletin Options > User Picture Options

Could do that as well :)

I have installed this hack and have a small issue.

As you can see from the attached picture, instead of having the new field show up on the userCP all I get is a double line.

I have followed the instructions exactly and gone over them several times. Any advice?

Also, do you have instructions for actually adding the extra fields to the second page. I am slightly new at this and I cannot easily see where/how to add them.

thank you

-CYVOK-

is either not created or has no value. As for the extra fields, you need to select EXTRA OPTIONS under Display Page when creating the field, or edit an existing field to do so. Have you installed the product? it creates the phrase mentioned above.

Sweet! Did not realize I had to edit the XML if I changed the VB phrase. I have it working just the way I woudl like now.

Great hack, thank you.

Ok, So How would I do the sub page? The input fields into a PM I might be able to work out but how would I create a subpage?

Could've just edited the phrase text, instead of creating a new phrase :) Thanks!


Create a second page as per the instructions earlier in the thread (post 26 I believe), and then just slap a link near the bottom of the first page template.

Yeah how would I Make the navbar reconise it?
so its like

Index-Usercp-Custom Page-SubPage

Thats what I want to know.

Oh, the breadcrumb, no idea, sorry!

Hi Wired!

Fantastic mod and just what I was looking for.

I've installed it on my forums - A World of Warcraft Guild site, and am allowing users to list their alt characters with it.

[S]One problem though, it doesn't seem to be working in Firefox, the dropdown box just displays the description text for the first entry field.

Works like a dream in IE and Opera.

Cheers for any help![/S]

Ignore me, I found out it was a bit of duplicated code causing the error in FF. sorry!

no problemo, it's just reused vBulletin code, so it had better work lol!

thanks wired, i've been away from the web the last couple of weeks.. i just got the extra pages working fine.

*clicks add* ;)

Im stupid or not but i have installed an test this on my page but its just a blank page when i click on the Edit Extra Options text

Im stupid or not but i have installed an test this on my page but its just a blank page when i click on the Edit Extra Options text

how can i get some text

Have you made some profile fields that are under Extra: Options?

same with me, It worked ok on the vb 3.6.0, but as soon as I upgraded to vb 3.6.1 it gives me the same blank page

Marco

Did you reinstall the hack, including the manual hacks?

I'm pretty sure it reverted the templates since when you install it they are all blank . .
I think you might have to rebuild them all:(

Correct, as asked above.

then I have to reinstall everything?

Tonight I'll try

Marco

My question:

How would I seperate fields?

I want to put fields in one td, then fields in one lower down.

how do I manually add them to do this?

In the member page? if so, please ask in the correct thread.

no, in the page I added.

ok, I'm reinstallin the hack, and it seems to work right now, but as soon as I add this part of the hack:

"FIND:

// END CUSTOM PROFILE FIELDS
// *************************

AFTER IT ADD:

($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('member_extras')) ? eval($hook) : false;"

I get database error..

why is that?
Will everythin work evern without this line?

Marco

This is exactly my problem!
I reinstalled everything but it isn't working..

I have a problem!

I can edit the profile fields within the user profile, when I'm logged in as admin. But: users can't edit the fields themself in their panel.

And: whem I look at the vB User Profile Field Manager, it doesn't show my fields!

It goes from 1-2-3-4-9 (!). 5-6-7-8 are gone!

I had to reinstall everything because when I upgraded to vb 3.6.1 it overwrited everythin.

Now in my forum everythin is workin right.

Marco

any way to show these specs under the users name when they post like location, age, and post count do?

I also reinstalled everything. Made the file edits again etc.

But it almost looks like that the fields are gone?

maybe you should add the profile fields again, or look in the template for creating the profile fields, you can code profile fields to appear and not work, just check they aint there.

How do I get these new fields to show up on the memberlist and how can I set it so that I can search by these new fields?

I'm not sure you can, Oo wait I'm sure you set it to do that in user profile field manager.

user profile field manager? can you explain more, please? thanks

That code does NOT exist in this hack. Please post in the correct area:
Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts


In otherwords, under User Profile Fields in Area: Edit Profile you have 1-2-3-4-9, and there is no User Profile Fields in Area: Options: Extra Options under that, correct? If so, have you done ALL of the manual edits? Specifically, the edits to admincp/profilefield.php?


Please read the first post, as it does explain this.Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts


a) Please read the first post, as it does explain this. Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts
b) https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=98282 (3.5 version of this hack) - it has instructions at the end of the instruction file on how to make them searchable... HOWEVER IT WAS NEVER TESTED. I WILL NOT SUPPORT THAT CODE UNDER ANY VERSION OF THIS HACK.

Yes, you can set profile fields to be searchable when you create / edit a profile field... HOWEVER it will not work with the "extra options" profile fields. Code WILL need to be edited in the memberlist.php for it to work. The code listed in the 3.5 instructions for searchable profiles will DEFINITELY NOT work with 3.6 due to some changes in how Jelsoft changed some of their code. If you change in the instructions, it will probably work, but again, I HAVE NOT TESTED THIS. NO GUARANTEE OF ANYTHING. If you screw up your forum, it's your fault. Test code on TEST forums, not live ones!

But how? It's making NEW fields with NEW ID's. So my members have to fill in their profile again?

I'm not 100% myself, I know coding can make input fields which could cause your problem, I'd suggest just checking the code is right.

------------------

Could someone please tell me how to insert the input fields without using the $conditions thingy, I mean I want to put a certain amount of fields in a top tds, then have a new box with new title and have more fields in that one, to make things neater.
How would I do that and still have working fields?
